PLAQUEMINE, La. - In 2026, the Southern Lab Kittens have been perfect: a nearly spotless 8-0 regular season campaign with three shutout victories. The Kittens put a bow on the unblemished regular season with a 40-0 win over the St. John Eagles and the District 9-1A Championship.

Not including their game against Thrive Academy, which was ruled a forfeit, Southern Lab has won every game on their schedule by 30 or more points, their largest margin of victory this season being their 66-0 win over White Castle back on Oct. 9.
