Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Tolar). They blew past the Breckenridge Buckaroos 42-6 on the road on Friday. Given the Rattlers' advantage in MaxPreps' Texas football rankings (they are ranked 319th, while the Buckaroos are ranked 853rd), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Peyton Brown continued his habit of posting crazy stat lines, rushing for 126 yards and three touchdowns, while also picking up 45 receiving yards.
When it comes to explaining why Breckenridge lost, don't look at Christian Flores. Despite the final result, he rushed for 57 yards and a touchdown on only eight carries, and also picked up 43 receiving yards. Flores' longest reception was for an impressive 50 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per catch total.
The win was the fourth in a row for Tolar, bringing their record for this year to 4-1. As for Breckenridge, they are on a six-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-5.
Both teams are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. After each having a week off, Tolar and Early will dust off their jerseys to take on one another at 7:00 p.m. on October 11th. Tolar's defense has only allowed 12.8 points per game this season, so Early's offense will have their work cut out for them. As for Breckenridge, they will have a little extra prep time after the defeat as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on Clyde at 7:00 p.m. on October 11th.
