SPIRIT LAKE - Coming back from a 24-14 halftime deficit, Timberlake made the proper defensive adjustments in the second half to beat Grangeville.
"It was a tale of two halves," Tigers coach Roy Albertson said. "They came out and put their fullback (Michael Wilson) at quarterback and we had a hard time stopping him in the first half. We made some changes defensively in what we were running and the kids did a good job (stopping him). Preston Rhodes played his first game tonight and he did a great job for us tonight. In the second half, our defense really did a fine job."
Wilson had 36 carries for 156 yards, most of which came in the first half. He had a tougher time running in the second half.
Tyler Condon scored the go-ahead touchdown on a 39-yard run in the fourth quarter.

RATHDRUM - Despite being down by a daunting 4-0 score, Lakeland showed strong effort before losing in nonleague play at home.
The Hawks (0-3) are still searching for their first win of the season.
"What I'm really happy with is being down four, we scored two goals to get back into the game and didn't give up," Lakeland coach Mario Maddy said. ""We just gave up soft goals. There's some inexperience playing together. We had some inexperienced mistakes. It was just communication and working together. As we have some continuity, it'll take time to get that worked out."
Lakeland plays today at Colville, Wash.
