WPCNR PRESS BOX. By John F. Bailey. September 15, 2007: With the Tigers driving for the go-ahead touchdown at the Mount Vernon 42 at the outset of the 4th quarter, they failed to make a first down on a 3rd and 2. Forced to punt, the Tigers had an errant snap on the ensuing  key punt, which sailed over the head of Tiger punter at the 10 minute mark of the fourth quarter leading to the clinching touchdown for Mount Vernon. When the Knights recovered the bouncing snap all the way back on the Tiger 20, the Knights took the ball  in 5 plays to break open the contest at 19-7. The Knights added one final touch down in the last 4 minutes for a final score of 25-7. The Tigers moved to 1-1 on the season with Scarsdale coming up next on Thursday afternoon at 4:30 PM.

The Tigers  tied the score on this pretty 10-yard scoring strike to the elegant receiver, Svaughn Greene who is shown going up and coming down with  Marquis Williams' on target 10-yard strike over  the middle to make it 7-6 just before the half. Mike Howard's conversion tied the score, 7-7. Mount Vernon took the lead on a 45 yard touchdown strike with 2 minutes to go in the half, after an onside kick by WP was recovered at the White Plains 45 by the Knights. White Plains failed on a first and 10 series starting at the Mount Vernon 25 early in the third quarter and again were stopped in the outset of the fourth quarter with the ball in Knights' territory.
