Wylie had to start their season on the road on Friday, and it wasn't the start they were hoping for. They fell just short of the Pearce Mustangs by a score of 24-21. The result was an unpleasant reminder to the Pirates of the 49-42 loss they experienced in the pair's previous head-to-head fixture back in August of 2024.
When it comes to explaining why Wylie lost, don't look at Jabriran B Blake. Despite the final result, he rushed for 110 yards and a pair of scores on only 15 carries, and also threw for 224 yards and one touchdown.
Pearce can attribute much of their success to Evan Roseberry, who rushed for 93 yards, and also threw for 141 yards and one TD. Those 93 rushing yards gave Roseberry a new career-high.
Looking ahead, Wylie will challenge Flower Mound at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. As for Pearce, they will face off against Plano West at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
