Even with multiple injuries impacting the lineup, the Shorthorns were able to build a 20-point lead last Friday in Thorndale. But, after a Bulldog comeback, they needed some clutch plays to start district with a 41-40 win.
Rodney H Walton heeded his head coach’s instructions to “lay out” after the game-tying touchdown with 5:24 left, diving to block the extra-point kick.
