This was the Tigers fifth consecutive Regional Championship appearance. This was the first ever football game between these two teams.

Muenster took a 7-3 lead after quarterback Blane Jones and fullback Dalton Bartel methodically marched the ball down the field on a 70-yard drive to score with 4:30 left in the first half.
A CJ Horn 3-yard score regained the lead for Tenaha and capped a 3-play drive which only took about one minute off the clock. Tenaha led 10-7 but not for long. Muensters Bartel added a second score which gave the Hornets a 13-10 lead at the midway intermission.
Muenster eventually out-scored the Tigers 20-6 in the second half. Onterio Thompson broke free and ran down the sideline 36-yards for the Tigers only score but it proved to be too-little-too-late.
Tenaha, led by first-year head coach Craig Horn, posted an 8-6 record after a tough 0-5 start. They played a tough pre-season schedule while introducing a young team to a new staff and system.
Muenster moves on to the State Semifinals next week and boasts a 13-1 mark.
