The Jordan Warriors will head out to face off against the Fort Bend Travis Tigers at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Jordan will be strutting in after a victory while Fort Bend Travis will be coming in after a loss.
While Warriors fans will have to keep waiting for their squad to come home, they shouldn't be too worried about the road trip considering the result of Thursday's season opener. They simply couldn't be stopped on Thursday as they easily beat Cypress Creek 66-20 on the road. Given the Warriors' advantage in MaxPreps' Texas football rankings (they are ranked 324th, while the Cougars are ranked 805th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
A big part of the win came down to the chemistry between Dominic Cangolosi and his top target Andrew Marsh. Cangolosi threw for 232 yards and a touchdown while completing 72.7% of his passes while Marsh picked up 169 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Marsh's longest reception was for an incredible 82 yards. Speaking of playmakers, who could forget Zion Jones, who went all the way with a kickoff return for a touchdown.
Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, Jordan was moving up and down the field and finished the game with 452 total yards. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Cypress Creek only gained 230.
Meanwhile, Fort Bend Travis was within striking distance but couldn't close the gap on Friday as they fell 18-14 to Mayde Creek.
