Fishers dropped its first game of the season on Friday, as the Class 6A No. 6 Tigers fell to 6A No. 7 Brownsburg at the Bulldogs’ Roark Stadium.
The game was tied after the first quarter, as Fishers answered a Brownsburg score when Dylan Scally ran the ball in for a nine-yard touchdown. Jack Phillips made the extra point kick. But that would be all for the Tigers until the second half, with the Bulldogs jumping ahead 21-7 by halftime.
Brownsburg scored another touchdown early in the third before Fishers ended the run with a 25-yard field goal from Phillips. But the Bulldogs added two more TDs in the quarter, taking a 42-10 lead. The Tigers got the only fourth-quarter score when Marcus Roux threw a seven-yard touchdown pass to Jeffrey Simmons. Phillips again made the extra point kick.
Scally finished the game with 114 yards on 17 carries. Roux completed over half of his passes, going 12-for-23 for 120 yards. Simmons made six catches for 63 yards.
The Tigers are 2-1 in the Hoosier Crossroads Conference and 4-1 overall. They return home next Friday to play Avon.
