Once again, the Wildcats pounded the
ball down the Rangers' throats with
two huge runs, one for 16 yards and a
32-yard dash by Peter McFarlin (#10)
We have one
level of service.
Personal.
One of the biggest blunders of the
game by Elgin was a punt that only
went 15 yards and gave the Rangers
fantastic field position on the Wildcat
26-yard line. The Rangers put their

During their match on Fri-
day evening, the Varsity Lady
Cats varsity volleyball team
couldn't find a way to over-
come the Troy Trojanettes,
losing all three sets by at least
ten points. The 'Cats put the
pressure on Troy in the last set
to stay even with them for a
few points before ultimately
being overwhelmed and de-
feated for a third time.
The Lady Cats next played
Pflugerville Weiss in an
away game on Tuesday. They
will stay on the road on Fri-
day, playing Georgetown at
6:30 p.m.
Elgin JV demolishes Rangers
With a score of 36 to 0, the Junior Varsity Wildcats
got to slow start by not scoring against Bryan Rudder
until the second quarter. Once they started scoring,
they were hard to stop. Some highlights included
Samuel Felix scoring on a pass play and Nicolas
Saucedo running 40 yards for a touchdown. Khry-
stofer Washington went lights out Thursday with a
pick six, 70-yard punt return for a touchdown and a
14-yard touchdown run. This week, JV Wildcats will
face the Pflugerville Panthers in Pflugerville at 6 p.m.

Those who made the 83-mile trip to
Merrill Green Stadium in Bryan on
Friday night were treated to a great
game of football.
The Elgin Wildcats took on the Rud-
der Rangers in what turned out to be
a slugfest.
The Wildcat defense started off
strong, causing the Rangers to punt.
After the punt, the Wildcats came
out with the mentality that they were
going to run the ball—and run they
did. On a ten-play series that started
from their own 30-yard line, they ran
into in the end zone. With the score
7-0, the Rangers answered the chal-
lenge.
The Rangers used a combination of
running and passing to put themselves
inside the Wildcats 30-yard line. Once
again, the Wildcat defense came up
big and left the Rangers coach with a
tough choice of going for it on fourth
down. The quarterback dropped back
and threw a 25-yard bomb that the re-
ceiver bobbled, but held onto, as he
fell to the ground in the back of the
end zone.
or 800.749.9732
The Wildcats exploded onto the field that left him scampering into the end
after a 22-yard kick return that put zone. The Wildcats ended the first
them on the opponent's 48-yard line, quarter with a score of 14-7.
