The Broncos’ final regular season game did not go as planned, but they were able to finish the season with only one district loss to Wellington 8-44 in the final game.
Claiming the runner-up spot, the Broncos will go into post-season play against the Gruver Greyhounds on Thursday, November 10, at Dick Biven’s Stadium in Amarillo. Kickoff is at 7 p.m., and tickets will be sold at the gate.
Despite the loss, the Broncos had a great regular season going 8-3 overall and 5-1 in district and look to go deep in the playoffs. Regrouping and refocusing will be the goals of the Bronco practices until game day. They will continue to do what they have done in their wins and play solid football.
Senior standout Jmaury Davis scored the Broncos’ lone touchdown and posted 22 yards on 12 carries.
The Skyrockets were able to contain Davis and keep him from his usual yardage and several other players had to step in. Lyric Smith filled in for injured quarterback Harrison Howard and carried the ball 16 times for 86 yards.
Wilson Ward went 32 yards on seven carries, and Mason Sims ran the ball twice for 11 yards.
Defensively, the Broncos never gave up, but struggled to stop Wellington’s offensive attack. Davis finished with 10 tackles, Josiah Hearn had seven, Sims posted six, and Jared Musick ended the game with five.
