Hamshire-Fannett took down Hitchcock on Friday, a win that might not have happened without Pierce Pirtle's standout performance. Pirtle did his part (and then some), rushing for 102 yards and three TDs on only 12 carries, while also picking up 38 receiving yards for the 'W'. He didn't just play on offense: he also forced one fumble and made 13 total tackles (3.0 for loss) in addition to snagging an interception.
Looking ahead, Pirtle and Hamshire-Fannett will face off against Vidor at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. The Longhorns got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Pirates thanks in part to Pirtle: he picked up 123 receiving yards and three scores. Can he match (or beat) that stellar performance? Check back here after the action for a full breakdown and analysis of the contest.
