Hutto fought a battle to the end with the Cameron Yoemen for the District championship, but came out on the short end. After a hard fought contest with Altair Rice Consolidated, which the Hippos won 20-16 taking over in the last minutes of the 4th quarter the Hippos bring their running game to Round Rock Dragon stadium to take on the Bulldogs of Marlin. Hutto seems to average about 40 carries a game; they can throw, but seem to keep the ball on the ground. The quarterback junior Jeremy Kerley, senior fullback Garrett Beshears, and senior tailback Jerrick Gauthier all sharing the duties of carrying the rock and they are big up front so the Bulldogs will have to find the ball carrier quickly and ensure they wrap up the runner. Hutto is big on the line but their backs seem to be small but quick. Hutto comes into the contest with a record of 9-2 with their only losses being to Liberty Hill 49-40 and the Cameron Yoe 17-13. Hutto has a big tight end that the dawgs will also have to keep an eye on.
Marlin with eight consecutive undefeated outright district championships comes out of another hard fought battle with rival China Spring. The two teams have met up in the playoffs four times over the past six years; Marlin leads the series 3-1. Marlin and Hutto have not met that I have been able to find, so this will be a first as the two teams seek to advance to the Regional game. Marlin running game is improving as sophomore tailback Travis Miller is finding his groove and shares tailback duties with seniors Kevin Diles and Jazz Thomas. Senior quarterback Jeremy Sanders is back and healthy with his receiving corps of seniors Benny Jones, Kenny Evans, Denario Alexander, and junior Dominique Jones. Marlin comes into the contest with a record of 9-1 having the game with Waco Connally canceled due to Hurricane Katrina. Their only loss coming at the hands of the Bellville Brahmas 38-35. Marlin has beefed up their offensive and defensive lines this year and this game will be won in the trenches. Marlin has to score when they have the ball and needs at least two stops on the Hippos to try to force them to throw the ball.
