Freer had to start their season on the road on Thursday, and it wasn't the start they were hoping for. They and the Banquete Bulldogs were almost perfectly matched up, but the Freer Buckaroos suffered a 21-20 loss. The Buckaroos were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Bulldogs apparently hadn't forgotten their defeat the last time these teams played back in August of 2023.
Banquete was led to victory by Damien Jenkins and Josh Jimenez. Jenkins rushed for 124 yards and a touchdown on only 12 carries, while Jimenez rushed for 65 yards and a touchdown. Jenkins' longest rush was for an impressive 54 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
