The Sudan Hornets will head out to take on the Tahoka Bulldogs at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Sudan can't be to happy about their upcoming road match considering what happened when they opened their season on the away from home on Friday. They took a 22-15 hit to the loss column at the hands of Olton. The defeat continues a trend for the Hornets in their matchups with the Mustangs: they've now lost four in a row.
Meanwhile, Tahoka gave their fans exactly what they wanted out of a home opener on Friday. They blew past San Angelo Texas Leadership Charter Academy, posting a 54-0 victory at home. The score at the end of the third wound up being the final score as the Bulldogs just coasted through the last quarter.
Jordan Martinez had a dynamite game for Tahoka, rushing for 158 yards and three touchdowns on only 12 carries. Martinez's longest rush was for an impressive 51 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total. Another player making a difference was Brogan Stone, who threw for 153 yards and three touchdowns while completing 87.5% of his passes.
Tahoka wouldn't let San Angelo Texas Leadership Charter Academy keep a hold of the ball as they managed to force two fumbles. Tahoka can thank Ruben Arguello and Steven Hernandez for forcing both of them. Arguello also put in work on the defensive side of the ball, forcing a fumble and making four total tackles.
Sudan didn't have too much breathing room in their contest against Tahoka in their previous meeting back in September of 2023, but they still walked away with an 18-14 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for Sudan since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
