The Sulphur Springs Wildcats are taking a road trip to take on the Aubrey Chaparrals at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. Sulphur Springs is currently enjoying a perfect season and no doubt wants to keep things rolling.
Last Friday, Sulphur Springs earned a 24-14 win over Mt. Pleasant. Given the Wildcats' advantage in MaxPreps' Texas football rankings (they are ranked 227th, while the Tigers are ranked 477th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Jaxson Haire continued his habit of posting crazy stat lines, rushing for 119 yards and two touchdowns on only 15 carries, while also picking up 64 receiving yards.
Another reason for the win was Sulphur Springs' imposing defense, which managed to get into the backfield for three sacks. Truth Holmes was especially locked on to Mt. Pleasant's QB and sacked him twice. Another thorn in Mt. Pleasant's side was Grayson Hardy, who made 11 total tackles and snagged an interception.
Meanwhile, there's no place like home for Aubrey, who bounced back after a loss on the road two weeks ago. They took their game at home on Friday with ease, bagging a 62-34 victory over Van Alstyne. That 28 point margin sets a new team best for the Chaparrals this season.
Sulphur Springs' record is now 4-0. As for Aubrey, they pushed their record up to 3-1 with the win, which was their fifth straight at home dating back to last season.
