After an intensive off-season geared toward improved performance, the football team makes strides to have a better win record this season. After only two games the team bettered their early season record from the previous year, and with a performance against Colleyville Heritage High school which could be a precursor for a winning season, team fans have a lot to look forward to.
Quarterbacks and receivers connected for 190 yards passing and the team rushed for an additional 200 to win the game with a score of 24-7. After a close game against Flowermound High school that ended with a loss 20-21, the team looks like the work in the offseason paid off in their performance against Colleyville Heritage , which many people consider a mentionable upset.
“It was a lot more intense this year and we had all of our coaches and all of our offensive and defensive coordinators in place, “senior, receiver Cody Darden said.” So we knew the plays a lot better and we could work on our technique.”
In their memorable game against Plano Senior High School on September 25, the team pulled together to finish the game with a winning score of 38-14.
The team’s upcoming game against rival Wylie High School should be explosive as it will be the first district game of the season and an excellent opportunity for the team to showcase their abilities and get a win.
“We have a lot of leaders,” Senior receiver Cody Darden said “everybody is a leader on our team, and we all go out to practice everyday and try to just get better.”
