Smashing Debut: Tanner Jacobson wins first game as TJC coach

Jacobson made his debut as the new head football coach of the Tyler Junior College Apaches.

His inaugural game was a smashing success, a 65-0 victory over Resolution Academy Prep of Arlington at Christus Trinity Mother Frances Rose Stadium.

"It is always good to go 1-0," said Jacobson, who came to TJC after being an assistant coach at Snow (Utah) College. "Half the teams are 1-0 and half the teams are 0-1. It's always great to get the first one out of the way."

The Apaches played numerous players as they raced out to a 28-0 first quarter lead and eventually a 49-0 halftime advantage. In the second half, the teams played 10 minute quarters instead of the usual 15 minutes.
