Football Preview: The Colony Cougars vs. Wakeland Wolverines
The Colony Cougars will look to take advantage of their home-field for the first time this season as they take on the Wakeland Wolverines at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. Both come into the matchup bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
The Colony is coming home in high spirits after they had to open their season on the road against Fossil Ridge. The Colony enjoyed a cozy 38-21 victory over Fossil Ridge on Thursday. Given the Cougars' advantage in MaxPreps' Texas football rankings (they are ranked 133rd, while the Panthers are ranked 302nd), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, Wakeland gave their fans exactly what they wanted out of a home opener on Thursday. They snuck past Grapevine with a 14-10 win.
The Colony was dealt a bruising 49-19 loss at the hands of Wakeland in their previous matchup back in September of 2021. Thankfully for The Colony, Jared White (who rushed for 187 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 9.4 yards per carry, and also picked up 51 receiving yards) won't be suiting up this time.
