Terrell took care of business in their home opener (and then some) on Friday. They blew past the Memorial Warriors, posting a 49-14 win. Given the Tigers' advantage in MaxPreps' Texas football rankings (they are ranked 178th, while the Warriors are ranked 621st) , the win wasn't entirely unexpected.
This one was won in the trenches and the lion's share of the credit has to go to JULIAN ASHLEY and RODERICK HAMBRICK JR.. ASHLEY rushed for 168 yards and four touchdowns on only seven carries while HAMBRICK JR. rushed for 178 yards and one TD on only nine carries.
When it comes to explaining why Memorial lost, don't look at Benjamin Wilson. Despite the final result, he threw for 212 yards and one touchdown, and also punched in one score on the ground.
Both squads are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Terrell will host Heritage at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The two teams might be coming in a bit winded given these two teams combined for 1,014 yards in their previous games. As for Memorial, they will look to take advantage of their home field for the first time this season as they take on Wilson at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.
