The Orangefield Junior Varsity Football team hit the gridiron last night to kickoff the 2025 campaign against the Woodville Eagles. As expected, the squad got out to a fast start and never looked back. A 3 & out defensive stand resulted in a Kolte Morgan blocked punt to end the game’s initial drive.
On the very next play from scrimmage quarterback, Jackson Agerton called his own number as he kept the ball on a read play and promptly knifed his way into the endzone to put the good guys ahead early in the contest.
The ensuing kickoff was a short one that resulted in a near beheading of the Eagle returner by Kolston Robinson. The big hits didn’t stop there as Hunter Block would come through with a quarterback sack on 3rd down to stall out another Woodville drive before it could get going.
This was the theme for the first half as the Bobcat defense limited the Eagles to negative total yards behind the play of the aforementioned Block and Morgan with Dacius Lytle flying around making tackles as well.
On their next possession, Agerton found a wide open Logan Anderson on a long pass down the opponent’s sideline. Dacius Lytle ran the rock hard, bullying his way down near the goalline before Hunter Block carried the ball to paydirt giving the Cats a 12-0 lead.
The next series saw Woodville backed up deep in their own territory after a nice boot from kickoff specialist, Andy Rutledge, but ended quickly as the defense decided they wanted to get into the scoring mix. Bobcat newcomer, Carter Mulhollan, flattened a fumble in the endzone to increase the Bobcat lead.
Then, right before the half, Coach Kendrick’s “Orange Crush” defense showed no mercy. Major Butler wrapped up a receiver on a short pass and Tryton Petersen cleaned him up, knocking the ball to the turf once again. Kaleb Flory quickly scooped it up and dashed into the endzone quelling any hopes of a Woodville comeback. A Jaxon Agerton two point trot would give Orangefield a commanding 27-0 lead going into intermission.
The second half saw much of the same treatment for the visiting Eagles with the Bobcat defense not letting the visitors move the ball an inch. Offensively, the Cats got on the board again with some tough running from freshman tailback, Lawrence Steiner. Place kicker Will Rutledge tacked on the extra point sealing a 34-0 opening day victory for Orangefield.
The Bobcats will travel to New Waverly next Thursday in an attempt to double up in the win column early in what appears to be another promising season.
