A feisty cat fight will be fought when Bobcats challenges the Dunbar Wildcats at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. Benbrook is currently enjoying a perfect season and no doubt wants to keep things rolling.
If Benbrook beats Dunbar with 28 points on Friday, it's going to be the squad's new lucky number: they've won their past two matchups with that exact score. Benbrook managed a 28-24 win over Eagle Mountain last Friday. Given the Bobcats' advantage in MaxPreps' Texas football rankings (they are ranked 233rd, while the Knights are ranked 626th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Benbrook to victory, but perhaps none more so than Brennan Barton, who threw for 240 yards and two touchdowns on perfect 18-for-18 passing, and also rushed for 35 yards. Carlos Harris was in the mix too, providing Benbrook with two touchdowns.
Meanwhile, Dunbar was within striking distance but couldn't close the gap two weeks ago as they fell 18-13 to Kennedale. The game marked Dunbar's lowest-scoring contest so far this season.
Benbrook's victory was their fourth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 5-0. As for Dunbar, they now have a losing record at 2-3.
Benbrook was able to grind out a solid win over Dunbar in their previous matchup back in September of 2021, winning 23-12. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was Dunbar's Murry Moore, who rushed for 139 yards and a touchdown on only 13 carries. Now that he won't be playing on Friday, will it be easier for Benbrook to walk away with another win? Check MaxPreps.com after the match to find out.
