Newberg Tigers Football 17-25 Century

The Newberg Tigers couldn't find enough traction Friday night, falling to Century 25-17 in a game that had some bright moments but ultimately too many costly mistakes. The Tigers came in looking to build some momentum after a tough start to the season, but the Jaguars proved to be a step ahead when it mattered most.

Newberg showed some fight and kept things competitive, but Century's offense was able to do enough to pull away and hold the lead through the final whistle. The Tigers had their chances to get back in it, and there were flashes of what this group is capable of, but converting those opportunities into points remained a challenge throughout the night.

The loss drops the Tigers to 1-4 on the season, and the road ahead isn't getting any easier. That said, there's still plenty of football left to play, and Newberg will need to regroup quickly and find some consistency on both sides of the ball if they want to turn things around in the second half of the schedule.
