WCS Wildcats Win First Season Home Game
While there are many tough games ahead this football season, the Wildcats are basking in their first home game victory against Galveston O’Connell. The young team under the leadership of new head coach Aaron Covington seemed to mature on the field in play as they scored six touchdowns to beat the Buccaneers 40-13.
In the first quarter, the Wildcats’ defense stopped the Buccaneers on the first series. The Cats’ offense got the ball in the next possession but lost the ball in a fumble which led to the Buccaneers’ first touchdown. In the next series, quarterback Josh Gordon redeemed himself as he shifted and dodged through the Bucs’ defense to run 55 yards for the Cats’ first touchdown.
In the second quarter, Cats’ tailback DJ Amosu rushed to the right side of the Cats’ offensive line for a touchdown which put the Cats in the lead. Just before the end of the second quarter, the WCS fans were thrilled as defensive back Richard Glenn intercepted a pass at the Bucs’ 15 yard line and returned it to the 47 yard line.
In the very first play in the second half, Cats’ Christian Broussard scored an amazing 85 yard kickoff return. Luis Portillo kicked the extra point. In the next offensive series, tailback Anthony Dupuy ran three times – 21 yards for the first carry, 18 yards for the second carry and two yards for the Cats’ fourth touchdown! Cats’ DJ Amosu ran 16 yards on second down on a sweep to the right to score the fifth touchdown against the Bucs. In the next big play, linebacker Kevin Perry sacked the Bucs’ quarterback in the end zone for a two point safety. In the fourth quarter, running back Taylor Propes received a pitch from Josh Gordon and ran nine yards in a sweep to the right for the sixth touchdown of the game! The Bucs scored a second touchdown for a final score 40-13.
WCS tailback Anthony Dupuy was the leading rusher with 14 carries for 158 yards and one touchdown.
