Week 6 Rewind

OFF THE TOP

Things that caught my attention Friday night:

  • I think the win of the night belongs to Stamford, who stays unbeaten at Olney 22-13.

  • Aspermont may be a close second with a hard fought 38-24 win over Newcastle. Some said they were underdogs... others still picked them to win (and guessed right for once).

  • May also remains unbeaten with a 58-12 win at Burnet Smoking For Jesus.

  • Loraine loses to Benjamin but will be able to learn a lot about themselves. They went the distance in a 61-30 loss against a team that hadn't played past halftime this season.

  • Congrats to Cory McCombs for earning his first victory as head coach of Anson in the Tigers win at Colorado City.

  • Coleman and Cisco continue to impress, beating San Saba and Winters by a combined 109-6.

  • I'm surprised Roscoe lost 47-14 to Sunray. Injury issues for the Plowboys?

  • Tascosa is very good and will likely go undefeated in District 2-5A D1. Abilene High had no answers on offense against the impressive Rebel defense.

BIG COUNTRY A TO Z

Abilene High (2-4, 1-1) fell behind Tascosa on the second play from scrimmage and could not ever fully recover in a 36-14 loss to the #9 Rebels on the road.

Tascosa ran for 349 yards on the night, 186 of those and four touchdowns for running back Tayden Barnes to lead the way.

The Eagles pulled within 14-7 on a Dre Abril fumble return for a touchdown in the second quarter, but that was as close as they could get. The Rebels answered with two more touchdowns before the break and led 29-7 at the half. The Eagles got on the board again late in the fourth on a Dylan Slack to Trey Simpson touchdown pass, but it was too little, too late as AHS only picked up 144 yards of offense on the night.

Abilene Christian (4-1, 2-0) earned a second district victory in as many tries with an easy 69-22 victory over Midland Trinity.

The game was tied at 16 after the first quarter but the Panthers dominated from there, outscoring the Chargers 24-6 in the second quarter and and 29-0 in the second half to earn the mercy rule victory.

Albany (3-2) was off. The Lions will open district play at Miles this week.

Anson trailed Colorado City 6-0 at halftime, but turned it on in the second half to pull away for a 22-6 win — the first for Cory McCombs as head coach of the Tigers (1-5, 1-1).

The Wolves (0-6, 0-2) are still looking for their first win for new head coach Monty Leaf.

Tegen Saiz led the Tiger attack with 103 yards and a touchdown rushing. Tyler Wilburn ran for 54 yards and completed 5-10 passes for 30 yards. Elias Ramos caught all six Anson completions in the game for 54 yards.

Aedan Briseno notched the lone Colorado City touchdown and ran for 62 yards. Mayson Monroe threw for 212 yards and an interception.

Aspermont (6-0) stayed unbeaten with a 38-24 home win over Newcastle (4-2).

The teams were tied at 24 at the half but the Hornets scored the only points of the second half and shut out the Bobcats to win by two touchdowns.

The Hornets are unbeaten through six games for the first time since 2012.

The Tigers got 179 yards and four touchdowns on the ground from Levi Vasquez to lead an offense that ended up with 378 yards on the night. Mason Beck threw for two touchdowns and 72 yards, both scores went to Isaac Smith.

Kyle Kensing recovered two fumbles and topped the Tigers with eight tackles.

Brookesmith (0-6) remained winless with a 45-0 home loss to Zephyr (5-1).

The Bulldogs have won five in a row after dropping their first game of the season to Bronte.

Zephyr outgained Brookesmith 234 to 37, led by Jayden Millcan’s 141 yard, six touchdown rushing effort. Eathan Gowin added 48 yards and the Bulldogs’ other touchdown. Millican led the team with ten tackles as well.

Brownwood was doomed by a bad third quarter in a 42-21 loss at rival Stephenville.

The top-ranked Yellow Jackets (6-0) turned a 14-14 tie at the half into a 35-14 lead heading into the fourth quarter.

The Lions (4-2) turned it over twice in the third and had a kickoff return for a touchdown called back by a penalty and saw Stephenville score a trio of touchdowns to pull away.

Brownwood was only outgained 415-379 by the high-powered Stephenville attack, but three turnovers for the Lions compared to zero by the Jackets were too much to overcome.

Ike Hall ran for 88 yards and threw for 232 with two touchdowns and two interceptions.

Star Stephenville running back Tate Maruska was held to 108 yards and a score but also caught a 74-yard touchdown pass from Ryan Gafford.

Cisco (5-1, 2-0) took care of business in district play at Winters (1-5, 0-2) 60-6 Friday night.

The Loboes outgained the Blizzards 497-112, leading 27-0 after one and 41-0 at the half on the way to the win.

Cade Gayle set the tone with a 60-yard punt return for a touchdown about a minute and a half into the game.

Hunter Long threw for 137 yards and three touchdowns and ran for 100 yards and two more scores. Gayle had the punt return for a score and also caught a touchdown pass, ran for a touchdown and completed 3-3 passes for 20 yards.

Alejandro Garcia led Winters with 76 yards and their lone touchdown rushing.

Clyde (4-1) was off this week and will open district play at home against Vernon.

Coleman (5-1, 2-0) had no issues on the road, rolling up the Armadillos of San Saba 49-0.

The Bluecats outgained the Dillos (4-2, 0-2) 356 to 78. They led 15-0 after one and 42-0 by halftime to stay perfect and set up what will likely be a showdown for the district title next week against Tolar.

Ryland Gentry ran for a team-high 90 yards and scored twice. Brent Bouldin added 67 yards and a touchdown rushing.

Jadin Jackson had one of his better passing performances to date, throwing for 116 yards on 6 of 9 passing for four touchdowns. Braxton Smith caught two passes for 77 yards and two touchdowns. Keaton Beets and Hunter Lackey caught the other two scoring tosses.

Jim Ned (2-3) did not play and will look to get district play started with a win at Bowie Friday.

Loraine gave #1 Benjamin all they wanted but came up short, 61-30, to lose for the first time this season.

The Bulldogs (5-1) made the Mustangs (5-0) go the distance. The game was tied 22-all after one, but Benjamin outscored Loraine 18-0 in the second quarter to go up 40-22 at the half.

STILL PERFECT

We are down to six area teams that are unbeaten after five weeks.

Loraine falls off the list with their 61-30 loss top-ranked Benjamin. The Bulldogs have nothing to hang their heads about, however, and will regroup looking for a district title and a long playoff run.

COLLEGE ROUNDUP

ACU (4-1, 1-0) won its WAC opener on the road, topping Utah Tech 26-10.

The Wildcats outgained the Trailblazers 440-284, rushing for 200 yards and throwing for 240.

Utah Tech led 10-6 at the half, but the Wildcats dominated the final 30 minutes thanks to the running of Jermiah Dobbins. Dobbins ran for 130 yard and three touchdowns with all three sixers coming in the second half.

Ethan Long went just 8 for 23 passing for 92 yards, but Maverick McIvor came in for the second half and went 7 of 12 for 148 yards.

ACU’s 4-1 start is their best since 2011.

Hardin-Simmons (3-1, 1-1) knocked off crosstown rival McMurry (0-5, 0-3) 45-13 Saturday evening on the south side of Abilene.

The Cowboys led 7-0 after one, 24-10 at the half and 31-10 after three quarters on their way to their 32nd win in 36 games against McMurry.

The War Hawks got as close as 17-10 in the second quarter on a 54-yard touchdown run by Anson native Drew Hagler, but the Cowboys answered with a 19-yard Gaylon Glenn to former Wylie Bulldog Gatlin Martin touchdown toss with under a minute left in the half.

HSU outgained McMurry 428-260, including a 334 to 105 edge through the air. McMurry ran for 155 yards to the Cowboys 94.

Glynn threw for 314 yards and four touchdowns, with Kevi Evans leading the way as usual with five catches for 139 yards and two scores.

Hagler ran for 77 yards to pace the War Hawk ground game. Freshman Luke Bradshaw made his McMurry quarterback debut, completing 13 of 22 passes for 105 yards and two interceptions.

Howard Payne (4-1, 3-0) remained perfect in ASC play with a 56-42 shootout victory in far west Texas at Sul Ross State.

The Yellow Jackets jumped out to a 21-0 lead by the end of the first quarter led by as many as 28 points at 35-7 midway through the second.

The Lobos pulled as close as 49-42 with 11:31 to play in the game, but HPU held off the rally to earn the win against a team that entered with the same 2-0 mark in conference play as the Jackets had.

The Yellow Jackets picked up 676 yards of offense but gave up 550.

Landon McKinney threw for 391 yards and six scores. Otis Lanier was his top target, catching five passes for 147 yards and three touchdowns. Both Billy Reagins (108 yds, 2 TD) and Javian Myles (106 yds) went over the century mark on the ground.
