Cowboys Willy-Nilly Over Wildcats

The Kara Krew comes again with the goods for the Middle School Football team and their win over Deer Park on Tuesday, October 7th .

The Middle School football team had another great showing last week.  If you just want the highlights, skip to the end, otherwise, read on! Pierson Rogers #22 rushed for the first touchdown of the game.  Joey Edmonds #5 ran the ball into the end zone for the PAT.  Wyoming was up 8 – 0.  The stingy Cowboy defense then proceeded to allow the Wildcats offense only a brief appearance on the field.  Before I could clean off my lens, Pierson ran a punt return for another touchdown.  Joey threw a short pass to Evan Prater #10 for the extra point.  Wyoming 16 – Deer Park 0.  During the 2nd quarter, the Cowboy Defense stiffened and held Deer Park when they drove inside the Cowboy 10 yard line.  When the Cowboy offense took over, Joey Edmonds had a beautiful 80+ yard touchdown run.  Our extra point failed, but we went into the half leading 22 – 0!

The 3rd and 4th quarters proved to be equally exciting as our first two.  Moe Mitchell #9 had a 43 yard touchdown reception from a beautiful pass by Evan Prater.  Evan passed to Joey for the 2 point conversion.  Wyoming led Deer Park, 30 – 0.  Somehow, Deer Park managed to find the end zone with 2:14 left in the 3rd quarter but failed to get the PAT leaving the score 30 – 6.

On the ensuing drive, Wyoming was looking at 3rd and long, so Pierson Rogers thought it would be a good idea to run for a 59 yard run touchdown.  The Cowboys attempted the kick for the extra point, but it didn’t quite make it.  The score was 36 – 6.  Deer Park answered back with a 64 yard touchdown run, Wyoming 36 – Deer Park 12.

Late in the game, Evan Prater threw a 20 yard strike to Conner Flood #1.  Conner made a great catch and was stopped just short of the goal line.  On the following play, Elijah McGee #30 took the ball the rest of the way for another Cowboy touchdown.  Noah Fershtman #83 took another shot at the uprights and got the final point of the game.
