My Football Weekend Pt. 1

This is the week of my annual high school football trip. Usually, we are at the Texas Stadium on the 2nd Saturday of December and the UIL brings us 3 football games.

This year, no such luck. So, my dad and I are spending the weekend driving all over the metroplex to get our football fix. We will watch a game in Arlington, Denton, and south Dallas.

It started Friday night at Maverick Stadium. The number 1 ranked Abilene High Eagles taking on Arlington Bowie.

Herschel Sims started the scoring with a 2 yard touchdown run in the 1st quarter. The score capped a 17 play, 98 yard drive for Abilene High. Abilene High led the game, 7-0 at the end of the 1st quarter.

The Eagles never looked back on this Friday. Sims scored touchdowns on the next 3 possessions and Abilene High was on its way. Sims carried the ball 37 times for 212 yards. Tony Curtis added another touchdown to give the Eagles a 28 point lead.

Abilene High is on to the next round with an easy 35 to 7 victory over Arlington Bowie.

My dad and I are off to the next game. We will be in Denton to watch the Denton Ryan/Denton Guyer game on Saturday.
