The 2016 North DeSoto Griffin seniors entered a game with something on the line that they had never faced in their football careers. Win and play another game, lose and for most them, their football careers will come to an end. Maybe they realized what happens after a loss or maybe that feeling will not be felt. Regardless, this team of seniors competed with fire that was unmatched this past Friday night. Led by senior Delmonte Hall, who alternated between running back and the wild cat/QB position, the Griffins ran past the Gators of Lagrange High School 35-29. The Griffins turned the ball over on their 3rd play of the game giving the ball to the Gator offense.
