NORMAN, Oklahoma -- The Norman Tigers edged out the Moore Lions, 13-7 on Friday.

The Lions scored early in the second to go up 7-0.

But Norman mustered a score right before halftime to tie it up at the half.

The defensive battle continued, as the Tigers scored partway through the third and their defense held on for the remainder to pick up the victory.

Norman knocked off cross-town rival Norman North in week one and will head to Del City next week.

Moore lost by seven in the first week and six to Norman. They will head to Southmoore for week three action.
