The two quarterbacks under center tonight in the high school football meeting between Terre Haute North and Terre Haute South are relative equals in varsity quarterback experience.
Both North’s Tristan Elder and South’s Collins Turner started a handful of games last season before entering camp in August as their team’s starter. Neither one is developing in a perfect linear pattern but Patriots coach Chris Barrett and Braves coach Tim Herrin are relishing the chance to spur the growth of their respective signal callers.
Elder, a junior, has fought an ailing knee recently but has put together a solid season, completing 61.
