St. Amant senior quarterback Cooper Babin had a first half that wasn’t ideal for someone playing his final regular-season home game. He threw two interceptions and the Gators trailed visiting Prairieville by three points at halftime.

Determined not to let his senior night turn into a nightmare, Babin threw for 146 yards and two scores and ran for two others in the second half to lead St. Amant to a 49-24 win over the Hurricanes in a District 5-5A game Friday night at The Pit.

“I got off to a slow start. Nothing else to put it on but myself,” Babin said. “But we overcame it in the second half. I have had a lot of good memories here, and I was determined to go out with a good finish.”

The game turned in favor of St. Amant (7-2, 3-2) quickly in the third quarter.
