BIG COUNTRY PREPS PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Hawley’s Marshall runs away with award

There are great games, and then there are those that border on insanity.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is not a misprint: Hawley’s Colton Marshall tallied 516 yards rushing and seven touchdowns in last week’s 73-20 win over Windthorst. 

If that isn’t scary enough, he did it on just 12 carries and was pulled from the game three plays into the second half. 

I’ve seen six-man players tally numbers like this on a fairly regular basis. But six-man is a different game with more field space between the players. To see an 11-man player do something like this is unreal.

Is he the Big Country Preps Player of the Week? Uh … that’s a rhetorical question.

FEATURE: Undefeated Lions led by lightning-quick defense

2019 Brownwood Snyder

It’s not difficult to discover why the Brownwood Lions are 5-0 and ranked in the top 10 in Class 4A Division I. Their defense is allowing 6.4 points per game and has recorded two shutouts.

“We’re thrilled, obviously,” said David Jones, Brownwood’s second-year defensive coordinator. “It gets harder to defend teams every year with the way they spread the field and the number of snaps they’re getting.

“But we believe that if each player will take care of his business, we’ll be tough to score on.”

Brownwood is fresh off its second shutout this year — a 33-0 win Friday over Class 5A DII Abilene Wylie — a game in which the Lions’ defense allowed only 109 total yards. The other shutout was 10-0 over 3A DI state-ranked Brock in the season opener. Sandwiched between the shutouts are wins overs Snyder (70-3), Graham (28-14) and Wichita Falls Rider (37-15). Brownwood will play its final nondistrict game Friday against Conroe Grand Oaks, a new program that will join the UIL next season.

Leading just 7-0 after a quarter, San Saba (5-0) outscored Moore 35-0 over the middle two quarters to take control of the game. Quarterback Sean O’Keefe led the offensive effort for the Armadillos, passing for three touchdowns and rushing for one, while Risien Shahan also had a passing and rushing touchdown.

Now done with its nondistrict schedule, San Saba will join the rest of its district in enjoying a bye week next week, before opening 7-2A DI play Oct. 11 against Goldthwaite.

GAME STORY: Richland starts fast, rallies late for win over AHS

NORTH RICHLAND HILLS — Missed opportunities and big plays cost the Abilene High football team in a heartbreaking 35-34 loss to North Richland Hills Richland in the District 3-6A opener at Birdville ISD Fine Arts/Athletic Complex on Friday night.

Seth Wells’ 9-yard touchdown catch on a wide receiver reverse pass from C.J. Nelson with 48 seconds to play capped off an eight-play, 82-yard scoring drive that proved to be the game-winner.

GAME STORY: Cooper runs away from Monterey for rout in district opener

Each quarter of Cooper’s District 2-5A Division I opener against Lubbock Monterey told a different story Friday at Shotwell Stadium. But the Cougars dominated the two that mattered most on their way to a wild 70-49 victory.

After a hard-fought first quarter in which the Coogs had to rally from an early deficit to pull even at 7-all, coach Aaron Roan’s squad outscored Monterey 56-14 over the middle two periods, building a 63-14 lead in the third before Monterey closed with a flurry of points — primarily against Cooper backups.

Coach Wayne Hutchinson’s Plainsmen never got closer to the lead than 21 points after halftime, though, allowing Cooper to cruise to 5-0 overall and 1-0 in the 2-5A DI standings.

BCP GAME OF THE WEEK: Cisco gets crucial win at Ballinger

BALLINGER — The Cisco Loboes are far from clinching the District 4-3A Division II championship. But Friday’s 26-9 win over fellow district favorite Ballinger on the road was one they almost certainly needed to have if they are to take the gold football in November. 

Gibson Hearne rushed 13 times for 102 yards and three scores to lead Cisco (3-1), which took control of the game with a 13-0 run through the second half. 

Ballinger, which got 130 yards in total offense and one score from Edgar Nunez, fell to 3-1.

FEATURE: Wylie LB Morris healthy, ready to lead defense

The 2018 season was a tough one for Wylie linebacker Dax Morris — not because Bulldogs went 0-10 but because he wasn’t there most of the year to help his team fight through that.

Dealing with injuries to both legs — a torn posterior cruciate ligament in his right knee and bone contusion in his left one — Morris spent most of his junior season on sidelines in jeans and boots.

But now that he’s finally healthy after a long and tedious rehab process, the 5-foot-10, 205-pound senior is doing his best to make up for lost time.

FEATURE: Inexperienced receiving corps catching on for Abilene High

Coming into the season, Abilene High coach Mike Fullen felt good about his receiving corps, but that feeling was based more on faith than results.

Only one Eagle receiver had caught as many as 10 passes in 2018, and the bulk of the players in that group had never played a varsity game.

But under the tutelage of former Abilene High and Abilene Christian University great Jerale Badon, a raw AHS receiving corps has shown rapid maturation through the first four weeks of this season. And entering District 3-6A play this week at North Richland Hills Richland, the Eagle pass-catchers have emerged as playmakers — just as Fullen had hoped they would.

BCP GAME OF THE WEEK: Loboes, Bearcats clash in our spotlight game (w/ Evan Ren’s Big Country Picks)

LAST WEEK: 43-7, .860

OVERALL: 173-34, .835

While the Cisco Loboes have been in countless big games over the last two decades, the last few years have been a bit lean for Ballinger. 

In fact, the general consensus is, when the Bearcats (3-0) play host to the Loboes (2-1) on Friday, this will be the biggest regular season game played in Ballinger in several years. 

At the very least, it’s our Big Country Preps Game of the Week, and deservedly so.

FEATURE: Unbeaten Cooper Cougars look to carry momentum into, past district play

Following an impressive run through their nondistrict schedule, the Cooper Cougars are 4-0 for just the third time this decade.

But as well as the Coogs have played during their perfect start to the season, outscoring their four opponents by a combined 116-48 margin, they know that the heavy lifting is only now beginning.

That 4-0 start is just a quarter of the way to the goal the team set before this season of a run to the state championship game. And with District 2-5A Division I play beginning this week with a home game against a talented Lubbock Monterey squad, the Cooper players are using that context to keep themselves grounded and focused on the task at hand.

FEATURE: Indians’ balanced offense may be the equal of their vaunted defense

TUSCOLA — Four games into one of the best starts in Jim Ned history, much of the talk surrounding the Indians’ success has centered around a defense allowing just 4.8 points per game with three shutouts. 

A powerful, balanced offense however, has largely escaped the media’s attention, despite averaging 490 yards and 46.5 points per game. 

A running game averaging 266 yards per night, along with efficient quarterback play from senior Dylan Martin is at the heart of it, and could very well help put the Indians at the top of the District 3-3A Division I race.

BCP SIX-MAN SPOTLIGHT: Loss of home stadium leaves ACS as lone Saturday game in town

2019 ACHSIn March 2015, the old Elmer Gray Stadium on the campus of Abilene Christian University was torn down to make way for what is now Anthony Field at Wildcat Stadium.

The demolition for the new on-campus football stadium came as the university built with an eye on the future as a member of NCAA Division I and the Southland Conference and needed a recruiting tool other schools might not have.

Tearing down the stadium, though, had a consequence for local high school football fans — it meant that Abilene Christian High School was left without a place to play home football games.

After spending the 2016 season playing at Curly Hays Field, the Panthers found a partner in the Abilene Independent School District.

With Abilene High and Cooper being the primary tenants of Shotwell Stadium, AISD superintendent Dr. David Young and athletic director Phil Blue found a solution for the Panthers to keep home games in town.

AISD and ACS quickly came up with a plan that allowed the Panthers to use the now 59-year-old stadium rent-free on Saturday’s with AISD keeping only concession sales.

FEATURE: Improved Coahoma no longer just the Zack Schneider show

COAHOMA — A year ago, while learning the playbook of new coach Chris Joslin, the Coahoma Bulldogs were in full-blown simplify mode.

The offense, for the sake of execution, had been pared down — often with quarterback Zack Schneider as the focal point as its top ground gainer. 

Coahoma closed Joslin’s first season with a 4-7 record and a trip to the playoffs. Schneider posted big enough numbers (237 carries, 1,901 yards, 27 TDs) to earn All-Big Country Preps honors. So in summary, the year supplied its share of positives. 

Joslin and the Bulldogs, however, wanted more. And in their view, the key to achieving it was to diversify.

BIG COUNTRY PREPS PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Roscoe QB earns award with massive game

It took a little while for the Roscoe Plowboys (1-3) to get things going this season, but once they did, it happened in a big way, courtesy of quarterback Junior Martinez.

Martinez, who helped Roscoe to a 48-20 win over Chico on Friday, accounted for seven, count ’em seven touchdowns, beginning with two rushing scores among 27 carries for 129 yards. 

He also connected on 20 of 32 pass attempts for 329 yards and five touchdowns and charted six tackles and two pass breakups as Roscoe earned its first win of the year.

District 3-6A: Week 4 Report

Abbe

Abilene High 28, Midland High 7 — Eric Abbe rushed for 100 yards and three touchdowns Friday to fuel the Eagles to their first win of the season and help give Mike Fullen his first victory as a head coach.

District 2-5A Division I: Week 4 Report

Cooper 30, Wylie 0 — The Cougars turned a pair of interceptions into a 13-0 first-quarter lead and controlled the game from there in extending their season-opening win streak to four games.

Cooper only finished with 318 yards — 192 rushing and 126 passing — but that proved more than enough thanks to an outstanding defensive effort. The Coogs held the Bulldogs to just 179 total yards in pitching their second consecutive Southtown Showdown shutout.

Cooper, which got 164 yards and three touchdown runs from junior running back Noah Garcia, will return to Shotwell stadium for the fourth straight game Friday, when it hosts Lubbock Monterey to open district play.

District 3-5A Division II: Week 4 Report

Cooper 30, Wylie 0 — A pair of first-quarter interceptions staked Cooper to an early 13-0 lead, and the Bulldogs were never able to recover in falling to 0-4 on the year and 0-2 in the Southtown Showdown.

The early turnovers undermined what turned out to be a strong defensive effort for Wylie, which held the Cougars to 318 yards — 192 rushing and 126 passing. Unfortunately for the Bulldogs, they were never able to get going offensively, finishing with just 179 total yards and suffering their second consecutive shutout against their new crosstown rival.

Wylie, which got 71 total yards from Jackson Smith (30 rushing, 41 receiving) and 69 receiving yards from Creed Cooper, will wrap up nondistrict play with their first true home game Friday, when they host undefeated Brownwood at Bulldog Stadium.

FEATURE: Ballinger’s Bean a true student of the game

To call Ballinger senior Cooper Bean a student of the game of football is an understatement.

“I’m a coach’s kid so I’ve been around football all my life,” said Bean, a running back and all-state linebacker for the undefeated Ballinger Bearcats. “I love watching film and studying every opponent we play. I like to know what’s coming at me on Friday night.

“I get yelled at by my teachers sometimes for watching film on my phone during class.”

Bean, a starter since his sophomore season, made 296 tackles during the 2017 and 2018 seasons combined. His 165 stops in 11 games last year earned the 5-foot-11, 205-pound Bean all-state honors at linebacker. He’s off to another solid start this season for Ballinger, which is 3-0 entering District 4-3A Division II play Friday.
