The Clarendon Broncos totally controlled the Gruver Greyhounds on the road Friday night and easily defeated them 41-7.
According to head coach Gary Jack, the Broncos had over 420 yards of total offense, while holding Gruver to only one touchdown.
Wes Williams had a great game rushing as he scampered over 165 yards for the game. Charleston Harris added to the total with a little over 100 yards and freshman Charles Mason helped with approximately 75 yards rushing.
“We definitely controlled them with our running game,” Jack said. “The wind was really blowing, so we did what we had to do on the ground. We controlled the game with our running game, and our line blocked well.”
Jerami Johnson was ballet-like from his receiver position as he made several great catches. Jack said quarterback Chance McAnear threw the ball well.
“Jayson and John Pigg, Nathan Dziedic Tres Hommel, and Adam Topper did a great job for us,” Jack said. “Our defense held them to only one touchdown and that came in the fourth quarter. We had started subbing in some players in the final minutes. Jerami Johnson and Diego Santos made some interceptions for us.”
Jack went on to say that the defense stayed pretty solid and shut down their best runner.
The Broncos will have an open week this week before taking on the Quanah Indians in their District opener Friday, October 21, at 7:30 p.m. on the road.
“Hopefully we won’t have any more injuries, and we’ll get some people back for District,” Jack said.
