But after four quarters of an intense defensive clash, Ray High School had enough to outlast Carroll for a 13-7 upset at Buccaneer Stadium Friday night. Ray led District 28-5A in total defense entering the game, having allowed an average of 126.3 yards rushing and 128 yards passing per game. The Texans held Carroll's speedy backfield trio of Frankie Morales, Johnny Smith and Marc Miller to just 31 yards combined. The Tigers finished with 37 yards rushing and 131 total yards. It was an important game and we needed the win.
Every game counts.
We came in knowing what we had to do. Our defense was awesome tonight. They were the key in the game. Our offensive line did an outstanding job with their linebackers. It was awesome, just awesome.
