Haltom lost against Bowie back in October of 2024 and unfortunately they wound up with the same result on Thursday. The Buffalos fell 30-20 to the Volunteers. The game marked the Buffalos' lowest-scoring contest so far this season.
Haltom's defeat came despite a true team effort from the offense with many players turning in solid performances. Perhaps the best among them was Vudrico Roberson, who rushed for 132 yards and one touchdown. Roberson showed off some serious burst, turning on the afterburners on one carry for 66 yards. Another receiver making a difference was Elijah Lewis, who gained 82 total yards and a touchdown.
Don't try to pin the team's loss on the defense: they kept the trenches locked down and allowed a mere three yards per carry. The team can thank Yurem Ortiz for the heroic effort on defense: he. Haltom didn't have any issues in that department, having averaged 6.7.
A big part of Bowie's win came down to the chemistry between Jayden Bibbs and his top target Keidric Osunde-Brown. Bibbs threw for 256 yards while completing 73.7% of his passes while Osunde-Brown picked up 141 receiving yards and one TD.
