OFFENSE

Taylor, the sophomore quarterback, continues to excel for the Grand Saline offense.

The 6-1, 180-pounder led the Indians to a 45-6 victory over the Eustace Bulldogs on Friday at Bulldog Stadium in Eustace.

Taylor was 6 of 11 passing for 123 yards, and he had 20 carries for 253 yards and two touchdowns.

It was the second consecutive victory for Grand Saline as the Indians improve to 2-2 on the season.

Taylor and the Tribe will return to play to play on Friday, hosting the Quitman Bulldogs (3-1) in the District 9-3A Division II opener. Kickoff is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. on Carter Elliott Field at Indian Memorial Stadium.

DEFENSE

Each week the explosive Chapel Hill offense gets the headlines, but the Bulldogs have a stellar defense as well.

Outside linebacker Brooks was all over the field for the Bulldogs in the 42-22 victory over the Nacogdoches Golden Dragons on Friday at Bulldog Stadium in New Chapel Hill.

Brooks had 10 tackles, two tackles for loss, three sacks and an interception. The junior also has a strong leg to boot. Brooks averaged 58 yards on punts.

SPECIAL TEAMS

Walk-off wins are exciting in baseball or football.

Sabine did just that on Friday night as Jaimes booted a 47-yard field goal as time expired to lift the Cardinals to a 30-27 upset of previously state-ranked Mount Vernon at James Bamberg Stadium Stadium in Liberty City.

The Cardinals are 3-1 on the season, already surpassing last year’s win total of two.
