CYPRESS – Cy Ranch finished off the perfect regular season.

The Mustangs needed just one more win to go a perfect 10-0 and to do that had to slow down the best offensive unit in District 14-6A.

Logan McDougald passed for 199 yards and one score, Donovan Johnson had two interceptions, including a 68-yard pick six, and Cy Ranch defeated Tomball Memorial 35-14 on Thursday at Cy-Fair FCU Stadium.

“It’s awesome, it seems like so long ago that we started,” Cy Ranch coach Gene Johnson said. “It’s a grind, to be at the and it’s very exciting to be 10-0.”

Cy Ranch (10-0, 8-0) completes an undefeated regular season for the second time in program history. The Mustangs last went 10-0 in 2016.

With the victory, Cy Ranch also claimed the District 14-6A Championship. This is the third time in the past five seasons the Mustangs have claimed a district title.

“I’m proud of our kids,” Johnson said. “To me that says something about the kids. It wasn’t just one year when we had a bunch of talent and we won. We’ve had some other kids that have come behind that and follow that up. I can’t speak highly enough of my players and the kids in the program.”

SUGAR LAND – The Elkins Knights exploded for 28 unanswered points in the second half Saturday afternoon at Mercer Stadium, prevailing 35-21 to earn the last available playoff spot in District 20-6A. Quarterback Cameron George threw for two touchdowns and ran for two others, with the last one covering 58 yards and slamming the door with 42 seconds remaining.

Elkins’ dominant second half performance was stunning because the Bulldogs had their way in the first two quarters. After Knights’ kicker Ethan Henry missed a 28-yard field goal wide left with 3:40 left in the first, Austin QB Trey Larsen lofted a 46-yard rainbow TD bomb to Troy Omeire. The ‘Dawgs led 7-0 with 1:44 remaining.

The ‘Dawgs domination and the Knights’ frustration continued. George lifted an even longer and more beautiful pass to Kolby White for an apparent 70-yard score, but offensive holding nullified it. After the Knights punted it away and the second quarter began, Austin’s Moise Tezzo scored the first of his two TDs with 7:31 left in the half and the Bulldogs were on top 14-0.

The only memorable moment the Knights’ offense had in the first half was George’s 20-yard strike to Mike Granson that narrowed the gap to 14-7. On their next possession, with an opportunity to drive for a tying touchdown, George threw late over the middle where Omeire intercepted and returned the ball to the ‘Dawgs’ 29.

With less than two minutes left before intermission, Tezzo broke at least three tackles and outran the Knights’ secondary for a 72-yard TD, his ninth and longest of the season. When the first half dust settled, Austin was on top 21-7.

Omeire’s second interception of the game stopped the Knights’ first drive of the third quarter, but the Elkins defense forced a three-and-out.
