This double header began with the battle of north Terrebonne, as HL Bourgeois faced Terrebonne High. The Braves who were favored in this match up by starting the evenings scoring with a familiar sight from last season, as Evan Ingram hit Christian Williams with a 45 yard TD pass. The Braves however were just getting started, as this was followed touch down runs by Christian and Caleb Williams, a 36 yard TD reception by Kerry Guidry, a QB sneak by Evan Ingram, and a three yard run by Steven Stewart. All of this happened in the first half, where the Braves lead by a score of 41-0.
With the second half came much of the same, as Sean Harvey added to the Braves lead with a touchdown of his own. The only other score was a game ending interception for a touchdown, leaving the Braves on top by a score of 53-0.
