A well-balanced attack led Willis over New Caney in every quarter on their way to victory on Friday. Given that consistent dominance, it should come as no surprise that the Wildkats blew the Eagles out of the water with a 42-7 final score. With the Wildkats ahead 21-0 at the half, the contest was all but over already.
Willis' success was the result of a balanced attack that saw several players step up, but Lincoln Frazier led the charge by throwing for 335 yards and four touchdowns. Frazier's passing game has become a key predictor of the Wildkats' success: the team is undefeated when his passer rating is 110 or higher, but only 1-2 otherwise. The team also got some help courtesy of Jamarcus Williams, who rushed for 101 yards and one TD on only seven carries.

Special teams also played a big role in the game for Willis, adding 12 points to the final score. The biggest highlight from special teams (and perhaps the team as a whole) came courtesy of Jermaine Bishop Jr, who ran a punt back for a touchdown.
