In Magnolia, the Jr. Bobcats dropped a game to Magnolia 48-26 against a very athletic team. Austin Courtney had a good day as he threw for 137 yards and 3 TDs. Tra Gomer had a great all-around game as he had 74 yards rushing and also caught a 13-yard TD. Jaiden Brown also carried the ball 5 times for 19 yards. Bradley Brown was very explosive with 2 catches for 62 yards and 41 yards and a TD. Kelson White also caught a TD.

In DeQueen, Hope dropped a very low scoring game 16-6 to the Leopards as Hope committed three turnovers (2 INT, 1 Fumble). Tra Gomer had a great night with 164 yards on the ground and the lone TD, Jaiden Brown had 2 carries for 13 yards. Tyler Smith caught both balls from QB Austin Courtney for 14 yards. Coach Collins told me, “DeQueen did a good job of controlling the clock, putting themselves in a lot of 3 and short situations, and offensively couldn’t get in a rhythm.” JJ Gulley had a heck of a game on defense with 11 tackles and Bradley Brown had 10 tackles as well. Avaria Mask had 1 sack, Mask and Anthony Orosco each had 1 TFL. Kentravious Harris had a fumble recovery. The Jr. Bobcats are back in action Thursday as they host Hot Springs.
