[99IHSMustang]

[Saggy Aggie]

14-7 necks. 11:56 2nd qt

[NECKS_17]

seems like Floyd always shines in the playoffs

[mac77]

What's up with Columbia did not expect Rockport to be keeping up with them?

Columbia's biggest weakness is size. Every team we've played this year who had any size at all and would come right at us, gave us problems. We've been able to force turnovers and get be stops when it counted.

[BlueThunder5]

RF playing some good ball and if they hadn't turned it over, it might be 14 to 7, but they fumbled on WC's 4 yard line.

Good for Rockport representing our district well then maybe they will pull an upset.

[SHSBulldog00]

seems like Floyd always shines in the playoffs

Shines pretty bright during the regular season.

[NECKS_17]

Shines pretty bright during the regular season.He shines all season. It's nice having a scat-back and flannel who can run over people. Nice combo

[Saggy Aggie]

Necks D holds again. RF punting. Columbia offense back on the field.

[Dogs_21]

Go Necks! Rep our district!

[99IHSMustang]

Cmon RF, show em how its done in 30-3A!!

[Ranger354]

Thanks for the updates BTW...

Go Pirates!

[2-ONES]

Go Necks! Rep our district!

Ditto

[Epicpirates]

I'm shocked to see the score so close. This doesn't seem to be the the same team Sinton got last year. This game shouldn't even be close ( no offense to R-F), but the Necks played Sinton like a third round team.

[Saggy Aggie]

14-7 Columbia @ half

[NECKS_17]

I'm shocked to see the score so close. This doesn't seem to be the the same team Sinton got last year. This game shouldn't even be close ( no offense to R-F), but the Necks played Sinton like a third round team.That necks team last year was a 4th round team so that explains why they played sinton so tough. That was a great game last year! This years team still needs to prove themselves in the playoffs, but they'll be just fine.

[SintonFan_inAustin]

Rockport has been in every game going into the half. Its the 2nd half that has been a problem in their losses.

Rockport stays close that offensive line for Rockport will take over.

[Saggy Aggie]

Necks were starting to get it together there in the 2nd qt defensively. I'm expecting Columbia to come out and put this game away in the 2nd half.

C'mon Necks! We've gotta play better all the way around. Mental mistakes cost us a big run and a big punt return from Treylon.

[SintonFan_inAustin]

Columbia qb or rb gets past the line its been for good yardage. That keeps up Columbia migth just put this away in the 3rd qtr. Have some highlights of the tds hopefully put some of it up late tonight

[SHSBulldog00]

Columbia's Bess injured his ankle in the 1st half. Not sure how severe.

[Saggy Aggie]

[SHSBulldog00]

[Saggy Aggie]

[SintonFan]

Does any one of you know the guys that are calling this game?

Mendiola is a really good back.

[Saggy Aggie]

Roughnecks get an INT.

Take over and will likely run the clock out.

[SintonFan]

Mendiola is a really good back.

Moot point now now that the ball was intercepted.

Score should be final.

He is a pretty good back though.

[zebrablue2]

congrats to the necks!!!

[SHSBulldog00]

Is Mendiola a SR?

[Tejastrue]

Sorry guys..the source I found the score at was apparently wrong..my apologies...

[Saggy Aggie]

Necks win 34-15.

Improve to 11-0.


Good season RF. Great job Necks! Time to find out if we play Raymondville or LaGrulla.

[SHSBulldog00]

Congrats Neck's:clap:

[SintonFan]

Congratulations Roughnecks on a hard fought, first round win! :clap:

[SintonFan]

Necks win 34-15.

Improve to 11-0.


Good season RF. Great job Necks! Time to find out if we play Raymondville or LaGrulla.

One thing I always remember about Raymondville is that they tend to swarm to the ball. They may not be the fastest or biggest but they do play with alot of heart.

Don't know anything about La Grulla.

[SintonFan_inAustin]

RF needed to play turnover free to have a chance, the fumble at the 4 yd line was a big setback, nice hit on the rb as he was falling down jar the ball out.

Columbia showed it can be a pretty good passing team, the passes were ok but the recievers made some great catches. Good luck next week Columbia and great effort Rockport Fulton ya'll represented well.

[Roughneck93]

Is Mendiola a SR?Mendiola is really good back. Enjoyed watching him run the ball. Program has him listed as a Jr.

[SHSBulldog00]

I saw some of La Grulla this year. Speed is not an asset. A decent RB and one good Slot Receiver. Raymondville should win though. They play tough, no real standouts. Neck's should advance if they TCB.

[Dogs_21]

Who's up next for Columbia? Great Win

[SHSBulldog00]

Who's up next for Columbia? Great Win

Rio Grande City La Grulla or Raymondville

[SintonFan_inAustin]

I saw some of La Grulla this year. Speed is not an asset. A decent RB and one good Slot Receiver. Raymondville should win though. They play tough, no real standouts. Neck's should advance if they TCB.Raymondville plays two games, one on the field and one on the sideline. That team is jeckyle and hyde. They have fans trying to force the coach out and players fighting with each other on the sideline but they somehow still win games with all the distractions.

La Grulla does look slow but have a bit of size.

[Roughneck93]

I see Raymondville and La Grulla played each other earlier this season. Raymondville winning 28-20. Seems like a toss up to me.

[yellaseeker]

Hats off to the whole Rockport group. Played their a$$es off and never gave up. I will say we didn't play good assignment defense at first but did better the second half. I give RF a lot of credit for pushing past our defense early on. I think all of us including the players under-estimated this team. Very good sportmanship and a lot of heart coming from those guys. Good luck in the future and keep ur heads up.

[SintonFan_inAustin]

should have td highlights of this game up in about 30 mins in youtube. If i'm still up i'll post link.

Good Job with the Camera work.

[krazredneck]

I will say one thing, the RF kids played hard, and seemed to have a lot of class. I was impressed with their demeanor through the whole game. Hats off to the kids and their coaches.

JUST STOPPING BY: Bess, ’Necks handle business in romp over Rockport-Fulton
Posted: Friday, November 11, 2011 2:00 am
By JOEL LUNA


VICTORIA —For some reason, Floyd Bess and Memorial Stadium just go hand in hand.
The Columbia junior led his team with three touchdowns and the Roughnecks defeated Rockport-Fulton, 34-15, Thursday night in a Class 3A Division I bi-district contest.
"He's done some things here, and he did exactly what we asked him to do," Columbia coach Leland Surovik said of Bess. "He made some plays, but shoot there were a whole lot of good plays out on the field tonight."

Bess collected seven carries in the first half for 132 yards, but none sweeter than his first one of the ball game.

Taking a handoff from Treylon Johnican on an end-around, Bess cut right through the Pirate defense on his way to a 70-yard touchdown. After Johnican's extra point, the game was tied 7-7.

It was a year ago when Bess also pulled off the same thing against Corpus Christi Miller at Memorial Stadium in the area round - except it was a 63-yard romp on his first carry of the game.

Though it was a quick start for the Roughneck offense, not much else happened until right before halftime. With 5:48 left before intermission, the 'Necks took over at their own 29-yard line. Eight plays later, it was Bess again. He shot straight up the middle as would-be tacklers could not get ahold of him.

After a 28-yard touchdown, Columbia went into the locker room with a 14-7 lead.

But the Roughnecks had a tough time with the Pirates' running game as Isiah Mendiola ripped them for 82 yards on 13 carries in the first half.

Halftime helped Columbia get things in order defensively.

"We basically were not lining up right, doing the things we were supposed to be doing," Surovik said. "They were catching us off guard, doing quick huddles and they changed their tendencies. I think we just needed to settle down and play. I told them at halftime, we need to be doing what we are accustomed to doing and not do anything special. That is exactly what we did because we ran what defense was called, and we played a lot better."

It showed, because there were some vicious hits in the second half, most of them coming from the 'Necks. One of those was from defensive back Kevin Brown on Rockport's Temple Tai, as the Pirates ran a reverse.

Brown tatooed Tai for a 1-yard loss.

They also held the Pirate offense to 46 yards on a couple of series in the third period.

Meanwhile, Johnican got the passing game going in the third, as the 'Necks faced a fourth and 22 from the Rockport 37-yard line. Johnican, who is also the punter, faked the punt and hit Bess on the sideline. The shifty tailback juked two defenders along the way into the end zone. Columbia opened up a 24-7 advantage and didn't look back.

"Sometimes, this first one is tough, and playing with everyone's emotions. Some of these players didn't know how to act, but once they settled down, they played well," Surovik said. "It was a slow start for us, but we got a win and that is all that counts. It was a hard win to come by, but it was a big one for us."

Johnican, who didn't complete a pass in the first half, was 3-for-5 in the second half for 91 yards and two touchdowns. He also had field goals of 39 and 32 yards as the Roughneck offense gained 379 yards on the night.

Next up is the winner of Raymondville and Rio Grande La Grulla, who face off today in Rio Grande City.

"We don't know what team, but we are going to be playing Friday night in Calallen," Surovik said.

Columbia's Floyd Bess is stopped on a run just prior to halftime as Rockport-Fulton's Chance Brundrett grabs his facemask in order to bring him down.

[scrub c]

That was a no call by the way..

[SHSBulldog00]

"We don't know what team, but we are going to be playing Friday night in Calallen," Surovik said.

Glad Coach Surovik cleared that up for us.

[coachrpawpaw]

We are playing in Calallen next Friday and we won't know who we're playing until after tonights Raymondville, LaGrulla game! Does that clear things up for you?

[scrub c]

It seems clear that The Roughnecks are playing in Calallen next friday vs. somebody.

[baseballcoach13]

That was a no call by the way..

Maybe that crew was the same one that told me the horse collar tackle was not being taken down from the back, but rather tackled from the front of the shoulder pads, under the face mask.....I am still trying to figure that one out. My reply was, "well i was wondering why an older gentleman was calling games on Wednesday nights, now I know"

[Saggy Aggie]

I think I heard the game is in calallen on Friday night, but we don't know which team yet.

[SHSBulldog00]

For those on the WC staff and any fans who are heading to Rio Grande City tonight have a safe trip.

[SintonFan_inAustin]

For those on the WC staff and any fans who are heading to Rio Grande City tonight have a safe trip. That is one long drive! drive carefully. At the checkpoints, stay calm! :)

[Necked]

At the checkpoints, stay calm! :)

I can see it now, Pancho sitting there sweating as he's trying to smuggle the 60 burritos under his clothes past the checkpoint...
