The Brentsville Tigers was the first team on the scoreboard Friday night.
They played the Warren County Wildcats at home in Nokesville in front of a crowd donned in home team colors orange and black.
Brentsville's DeShawn Denny ran the ball 50 yards for the touchdown with one second left in the first quarter. An attempt at a two-point conversion for the Tigers ended poorly, and the Wildcats took over on downs.
The Tigers had several penalties leading up to the score. Game officials called an illegal shift on the team at the 1:29 mark. The team then turned over the ball to Warren County at 1:25 in the first.
The Wildcats came alive in the second quarter when Jakob Cornwell intercepted the ball from the Tigers with nine minutes left in the quarter. Later in the quarter with seven yards to go to the goal line, Warren County answered the Tigers as Warren County Quarterback Robert Rutherford ran the ball into the end zone for a touchdown.
The score was Warren County, 7, Brentsville, 6 at halftime.

The crowd then went for the food truck, where fried Oreo cookies, fried, pickles, chocolate-covered French fries, awaited them.
The Tigers came back onto the field to start the second half on fire. Warren County fumbled, allowing Brentsville's Kyle Persons to recover. That set up 16-year-old junior Zack Yates who took the ball in for a touchdown complete with a two-point conversion at 10:40 in the 3rd, bringing the score 14-7. It was the last time Warren County lead in the game.
Warren County came back later in the quarter, as Joshua Butler picked off a pass intended for Brentsville's DeShawn Denny.
Then early in the fourth, another play by Brenstville's Yates who ran the ball 20 yards down to the 10-yard line. That set up Eric Jones for another touchdown, bringing the score 21-7 Brentsville, at 10:42 in the fourth.
With the ball back in hand, Warren County fumbled at 9:11 and the Tigers took over on downs. Brentsville's Donovan Hollins made an impressive 40-yard run to the 20-yard line and jumped into the air before tackled.
Hollins took the ball in for a touchdown with 3:26 left in gameplay, making the score 28-7.
Warren County through several deep passes, and connected with Daniel Spangler who took it in for a touchdown with 2:28 left in play, making the score 28-14.
Warren County was possession of the ball with 53 seconds left in the 4th and fumbled on the 20-yard-line inside Tiger territory. Brentsville took over and took a knee to finish the game.
