Corpus Christi Moody extended their losing streak to three on Friday, dropping them down to 3-5. They had to suffer through a 55-21 loss at the hands of the Ray Texans. The Trojans lost against the Texans in their previous head to head back in October of 2024, too, but the margin this time around was even wider than the 23-21 score last time.
Despite the loss, Corpus Christi Moody still got an impressive performance from Kayden Dufour, who rushed for 141 yards and one score while picking up 7.4 yards per carry.
As for Ray, the win made it two in a row for them and bumps their season record up to 5-3. The result was nothing new for the Texans, who have now won three matchups by 34 points or more so far this season.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Ray to victory, but perhaps none more so than Tripp Thompson, who threw for 193 yards and four touchdowns on only 11 passes, and also rushed for 72 yards and one TD. Thompson's passing game has become a key predictor of the Texans' success: the team is 4-1 when his passer rating is 110 or higher, but only 1-2 otherwise. Brian McCullum was another key player, gaining 120 total yards and three touchdowns.
Both squads will have to hit the road in their upcoming contests. Corpus Christi Moody will square off against King at 7:05 p.m. on Thursday. The Mustangs will aim to continue their three-game streak of scoring more points each game than the last. As for Ray, they will face off against Carroll at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Texans will be up against the Tigers' rather soft defense (which has allowed 28.75 points per matchup), so fans could be in store for a big offensive performance.
