📰 News we're reading
• Royals outpaced by Bears in fourth, fall in region-opener (thedailytimes.com) — Tellico Plains football fans saw the Bears surge past Eagleton with a dominant, run-heavy fourth quarter to win their Region 2-1A opener 50–28. Coach Bobby White’s squad leaned on a powerful ground game and a key pick-six to erase an early deficit and stay perfect in region play, despite some risky onside kicks that repeatedly gifted Eagleton good field position.
