The Lumpkin Co. Indians (2-8, 2-2 Region 7-3A) defeated the Dawson Co. Tigers (0-12, 0-5 Region 7-3A) 3-1 on Tuesday night in Dahlonega. Senior Efrain Contreras was a huge factor for Lumpkin Co. As goalie, the only goal he allowed was with less than a minute left when the game was already out of reach.

Freshman Nicholas Esqueda looks to make a play. 

Senior Dylan Bodney scored a goal a little over four minutes into the game to allow the Indians to jump out to an early lead. Neither team scored until Senior Gage Benton scored his first goal just before the half ended. Benton scored his second goal of senior night with only seven minutes remaining in the game to seal the win.

Lumpkin Co. hosts Cherokee Bluff this Friday at 7:30 p.m.

The Tigers have another road game this Friday at East Hall high school.
