Picayune’s defense redeemed itself Friday Night.

And in the process, the Maroon Tide picked up its first win of the season.

After allowing 61 points in a season-opening loss to Petal last week, Picayune held a solid D’Iberville team to just over 200 yards of total offense in dismantling the Warriors 41-13 at Maroon Tide Stadium.

Both teams are 1-1 on the year. Picayune’s defense allowed just one score until the fourth quarter, when the Warriors added a score after the game was out of reach.
