Another good weekend for Orange County and Deweyville football teams as everyone won on Friday night.
The Orangefield Bobcats dominated Kirbyville 49-14 to move to 4-0 in district. The game started with Kirbyville recovering an onside kick, but the defense would stand tall and hold them to a three and out. After the punt the Bobcats would take over on their 15 yard line and go on an 8 play drive that was capped off by a Zach Morrow 26 yard touchdown run. The Bobcats would never look back as they rolled to a 35-0 halftime lead. The Bobcat offense dominated the line of scrimmage and rushed for 330 yards and had 488 total yards of offense on the night. The leading rusher in the district, Mason Manning, had another good night rushing 17 times for 133 yards and 3 touchdowns. Carson Gonzales completed all 7 passes for 158 yards. Kyler Green led receivers with 3 receptions for 74 yards. Jose Lecea carried the load in the second half with 9 totes for 58 yards and a touchdown. Defensively William Crosby was in the backfield all night disrupting the Wildcat offense. The Bobcats would cause two turnovers with a forced fumble by Kaleb Menard and Cole Sanches would come down with an interception on a ball that was tipped in the air by Landon Kibodeaux. Ethan Brown, Logan Trahan, and William Crosby all had sacks on the night. The Bobcats will enjoy a much needed bye week next week before they host East Chambers on November 1 for Senior Night.
