In a game predicted to be a soft defensive battle with high scores, both defenses came alive tonight. After Lorena drives down inside Robinson 5 yrd line twice , Robinson defense hold Lorena scoreless, but leaves Robinson in a hole on their own 2 to bring out. Lorena defense captures a safety when RR tries to run it out, leaving a surprising 2-0 halftime lead by Lorena.
Second haldf again saw both defenses stepping it up, before Robinson is able to connect on a 35 yd td pass.
Lorena forced to punt with 5:00 remaining, LL down the ball at the RR 7 yd line. 2 plays later find themselves with 4th dn on their own 2. With their punter injured, RR takes an intentional safty in order to get the ball out. Kicking to LL with about 4:00 remaining. Lorena moving the ball, Coleman connects with McKenzi for a 31 yd gain, and hen Coleman hammers it in to go up 11-7. Lorena kicks off with 2:44 reamining for the RR and 3 timeouts. Couple of 7 yd quick outs, RR is down to the LL 25, but with 20 seconds and facing 4th down, RR pass falls incomplete.
This leaves 4 teams tied at 7-1 records. Just another fun year in 17-3A.
Robinson, Lorena, Connally, and LaVega at 7-1.
LaVega has the toughest remaining schedule, still to face Connally and Robinson and will probably fall to 7-3.
Robinson to still face China Spring and LaVega, but should win out and go 10-1.
Connally to face LaVega and West and should go 10-1.
Lorena with lesser remaining schedule vs WEst and China Spring should finish 10-1.
Of course, throw in a LaVega or China Spring to play spoiler, and this all could change!
