Eagle Staff Report

CENTERVILLE -- Teague senior quarterback Jake McClain led a balanced offense as the Lions beat the Centerville Tigers 42-21 in a battle of District 11-2A teams in different divisions.

McClain passed for 198 yards and junior tailback Larry Busby had four rushing touchdowns to lead Teague's 185-yard ground game.

Centerville, which competes in Division II, wasn't too far behind the Lions in total yards, but was hampered by three fumbles that led to its second straight loss. Teague, which didn't have a turnover, is 2-0.

Centerville sophomore running back Ryan Payne had a pair of touchdowns. He caught a 57-yard pass from Garrett Chase for a 7-0 lead. He scored his team's last touchdown on a 3-yard run. Seth Mahaffey had Centerville's other touchdown on a 24-yard reception from Garrett.

Centerville will play at Elkhart on Sept. 10.
