The Hebron Hawks will look to take advantage of their home-field for the first time this season as they take on the Southlake Carroll Dragons at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Keep an eye on the score for this one: the two teams posted some lofty point totals in their previous games.
Hebron is coming home in high spirits after they had to open their season on the road against Dallas Jesuit. Hebron took down Dallas Jesuit 48-31 on Friday.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Hebron to victory, but perhaps none more so than Patrick Crayton Jr, who threw for 246 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 12.3 yards per attempt, and also rushed for 49 yards. Tyler Hoke was Crayton Jr's top target, picking up 133 receiving yards and three touchdowns.
Meanwhile, Southlake Carroll took care of business in their home opener on Friday (and then some). They blew past Midland 48-24. With the Dragons ahead 35-14 at the half, the match was all but over already.
Southlake Carroll's success was the result of a balanced attack that saw several players step up, but Angelo Renda led the charge by throwing for 196 yards and three touchdowns while completing 88.2% of his passes, and also rushing for 48 yards and two touchdowns. Another player making a difference was Riley Wormley, who rushed for 126 yards and a touchdown on only seven carries.
Wormley wasn't the only one working in the rushing yards department: Southlake Carroll was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 253 rushing yards. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now rushed for at least 218 rushing yards in seven consecutive matchups dating back to last season.
Hebron didn't have too much breathing room in their game against Southlake Carroll in their previous matchup back in November of 2017, but they still walked away with a 36-31 victory. Does Hebron have another victory up their sleeve, or will Southlake Carroll turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
