Clarendon’s Kevin Johnson (center) was named an honorary Texas Game Warden last week by the Texas Parks & Wildlife Department. Johnson, who makes badges for the department and helps raise money for its “Operation Game Thief,” said the honor came as a complete surprise when Asst. Commander Stormy King and Lt. Kevin Winters showed up at his studio shop last Friday.

The Broncos evened up their record with a huge win over Smyer last Friday on the road. The 55-8 win gave the Broncos a 2-2 overall record as they knock on the door of their District season start.

The Broncos ended with 429 yards with 374 of those yards on the ground and 85 yards in the air. Senior Jmaury Davis ran the ball five times for 205 yards that include three touchdowns. Quay Brown found the endzone one time and went 93 yards on four carries, and Lyric Smith added one touchdown carrying the ball seven times for 48 yards.

Smith also was on the receiving end of three passes for 63 yards and another two touchdowns. Harrison Howard was five of nine passing in racking up 85 yards that included the two touchdown strikes to Smith.

The defensive effort by the Broncos was solid as they only allowed Smyer to find the endzone once. Wilson Ward did a solid job on defense as he put himself in a position to grab a pass from the Smyer offense and go nearly the length of the football field for six points. Ward also posted six tackles in the game. However, Colton Benson led the way on defense with 15 tackles and one QB sack. Mason Sims grabbed eight tackles, and Grant Haynes stepped up and had seven tackles against the Bobcats.

The Broncos will host Tulia on Friday, September 23, for their homecoming game beginning at 7:00 p.m. in Bronco Stadium. To purchase tickets for Friday’s game, visit https://clarendon-cisd.ticketleap.com/bronco-football-vs-tulia/

by Leave a Comment

The Broncos put a great game plan together on the road last Friday and were able to defeat the Booker Kiowas 46-20.

The win was the first of the season for the Broncos, and they are currently one win and two losses.

Texas Tech recruit and senior Jmaury Davis had a stellar game with 317 total yards on 20 carries. Davis found the endzone five different times in the game. Lyric Smith carried 10 times for 87 yards and one touchdown. Credit goes to the Bronco line for opening up the Kiowa defense for the ball carriers.

Quarterback Harrison Howard had a good game from his position throwing for 21 yards on three out of six passes. Howard was able to throw a 12-yard strike to Mason Sims for six.

The Bronco defense played solid the entire game, and four players finished with double figure tackles. Anthony Ceniceros and Colton Benson had 11 tackles each, and Ceniceros added one quarterback sack to his stats. Jared Musick and Wilson Ward each grabbed 10 tackles and Ward had one fumble recovery.

“The kids played good against Booker,” head coach Clint Conkin said.
The Broncos hope to get another win as they travel to Smyer September 16. Kickoff is at 7 p.m.
