Newberg Tigers Football 0-46 Sherwood

Sherwood handed Newberg a 46-0 shutout Thursday night in Pacific Conference (6A) football, sending the Tigers home from Sherwood winless through two league games. The lopsided result drops Newberg, based in Newberg, Oregon, to 1-5 overall and 0-2 in conference play as the Tigers search for answers midway through a challenging fall campaign. Sherwood controlled the contest from start to finish, never allowing the Tigers to find a foothold offensively or slow down the Bowmen on the other side of the ball. A shutout loss is a tough pill to swallow at any point in the season, but it gives the Newberg coaching staff clear areas to address heading into the back half of the schedule. The Tigers will need to regroup quickly, as conference games carry playoff implications and every remaining week matters. Newberg will look to bounce back and pick up its first Pacific Conference win when it returns to action next week.
