When two football teams are evenly matched, head to head, move to counter-move, the difference between winning and losing the game can be as simple as a change of possession.  And so it seemed after four incredibly closely played quarters between two teams that showed a propensity to score quickly and deeply into double digits in earlier games.   The game came down to one point and untimely change of possessions.

The game started with Plano receiving the kickoff, and the grind started.  The first score of the game came late in the 1st quarter when #21 Richard Lagow scored on a quarterback keeper which was capped by a PAT by #96 Jourdan Escobar.  Less than two minutes later the quarter ended with Plano up 7-0.

A few minutes into the 2nd quarter an unsuccessful fake punt play gave the Broncos the ball in Wildcats territory and at the 8:55 mark a pass play put the Broncos on the scoreboard 7-6.  The PAT attempt was no good, the ball bouncing off the left upright.  Five minutes later, with a different kicker, the Broncos put up three with a successful FG and the half ended with the Broncos in the lead 9-7 over the Wildcats.

The Wildcats kicked off to start the second half and the entire 3rd quarter was a test of wills between the two teams. The Wildcats were driving at the end of the quarter, but still down by 2.

Seconds into regulation play in the 4th quarter Lagow scored again with yet another quarterback keeper and Escobar’s PAT kick was true, and the Wildcats regained the lead, 14-9.  The Broncos responded with a strong offensive drive of their own, and a breakaway run through the Wildcats defense put another 6 points on the board for the Broncos, and they were back in the lead 15-14 with 9:30 left in the game.  The Broncos tried to buy some insurance for the wisp of a lead with a 2-point play but they were

unsuccessful.  The Wildcats pushed hard to get into position to score, but lost possession twice before they could get within field goal range.  McKinney Boyd’s 1 point lead held until the horn sounded the end of the quarter and the game.

Varsity Wildcats First 2012 Loss To Hebron: 21-24

The Plano Wildcats varsity team suffered the first loss of the 2012 season in a Friday night loss to the Hebron Hawks at Plano’s John Clark Stadium.

Hebron struck first with a TD and PAT in the 1st quarter, and that 7-0 score held for the quarter.

Plano tied the score early in the 2nd quarter, but couldn’t respond when Hebron put up another TD and PAT and then a field goal with 1 second left in the half.  Plano went to the locker room at the half down 17-7.

The 3rd quarter saw the last of scoring by either team.  Hebron came out of the locker room and hung another 7 on Plano.  The Wildcats responded with a TD, but missed the PAT, and then scored another TD with a good two-point conversion.  With 2:25 left on the clock in the 3rd quarter the Wildcats had closed the gap to 21-24.  From that point on, neither team was able to put points on the board.  In the last minutes of the 4th quarter the Wildcats made a valiant passing drive for the end zone, but a win was not in the cards for the Wildcats this week.

Unofficial Offensive Stats:  Passing – #21 Richard Lagow, 6 of 14 for 206yds, 2 INTs, and 1 TD; #5 Braylan Campbell 1 for 1 and 1 TD; Receiving- #16 Mitchell Hansen 2 catches for 106yds and 1 TD, #9 Anthony Antwine 3 for 64yds and 1 TD, #89 Dalton Reeves 1 for 46yds, #22 Corey Robertson 1 for 4yds; Rushing – #34 Andre Morman 15 carries for 96yds and 1 TD, #5 Cambell 8 for 56yds, #22 Robertson 5 for 41yds, #33 Brandon Stephens 2 for 10, #38 Branon Wahle 1 for 5yds, #21 Lagow 1 for -9yds; Kicking/Punts – #96 Jourdan Escobar 1 PAT and 2 punts averaging 33yds, #95 John Cummings 1 punt for 10yds.

Varsity Eases Past Naaman Forest 38-25 (Updated)

The Wildcats scored early and often in this Thursday evening game against the Garland Naaman Forest Rangers, starting with a quarterback keeper touchdown by #21 Richard Lagow  three minutes and fifteen seconds into the game, capped by a PAT by #96 Jourdan Escobar. The Rangers responded less than two minutes later with 7 points of their own, and after a Wildcats field goal attempt failed when the ball bounced off the right upright the teams ended the 1st quarter tied 7-all.

The next Plano touchdown derived from a pass to #12 Devon Richardson who ran the ball into the end zone.  The PAT was good and Plano was up 14-7 early in the second quarter.  A Ranger field goal attempt at 7:56 was no good.  The next successful score would come from another Lagow QB keeper and good PAT.  With 4:44 left in the half Plano was up 21-7 and that score took the teams into the locker rooms at the half.

Plano kicked off to start the second half and Naaman put together a drive for a touchdown, but Plano’s special teams players spoiled the PAT attempt.  At 9:43 in the third quarter the score was 21-13.  Plano followed with a rushing touchdown by #5 Braylan Campbell and PAT with 3:03 left in the quarter.

The fourth quarter scoring started with a Plano field goal kicked by #96 Escobar.  With 9:43 remaining in the game Plano lead 31-13.  Then the Rangers put together two unanswered scoring drives, closing to within 6 points of the Wildcats with 4:06 left on the clock.  The Wildcats offense came back to life when #34 Andre Morman carred the ball over the goal line, capped by another Escobar PAT.  Plano had a cushion with 38-25 with 3:27 left on the clock.  Naaman stormed back, and in the red zone threatened to score a touchdown when #6 Grant Lyness intercepted in the end zone.  With only 1:49 left in the game, the big defensive play sealed the win for the Wildcats.

Unofficial Offensive Stats: Passing – #21 Lagow 10 of 14 for 228yds, 0 INT and 1 TD; Receiving – #16 Mitchell Hansen 1 catch for 57yds, #12 Devon Richardson 1 for 52yds and 1 TD; #9 Anthony Antwine 3 for 47yds, #22 Corey Robertson 2 for 29yds, #2 Corbin Whitehair 2 for 28yds, #82 Sam Tecklenburg 1 for 15; Rushing – #34 Morman 9 for 94yds and 1 TD, #5 Campbell 7 for 58yds and 1 TD, #33 Brandon Stephens 8 for 34yds, #21 Lagow 8 for 24yds and 2 TDs, #22 Robertson 5 for 20yds; Kicking/Punting – #96 Escobar 5 PATs and 1 FG, 2 punts averaging 36yds.

Official defensive stats will be posted later in the week once confirmed by the coaching staff.

Plano Edges Out Irv. Mac. 27-20 in 2012 Contest

With just two minutes remaining in a tied game, a cool front blasted into Irving Schools Stadium Friday night, gusting directly into the faces of the Wildcats offense.  Turns out it was the winds of victory for Plano, as QB #21 Richard Lagow followed his linemen across the goal line for a touchdown that broke the 20-20 tie with only 1:49 remaining on the game clock.  The PAT kick by #96 Jourdan Escobar was on the mark despite the wind.  It was now up to Plano’s defense to seal a contingent victory.

The ensuing kick to the Cardinals was misjudged by their return crew and they found themselves facing about a 95 yard fight to just secure a tie.  In the ensuing 49 seconds of play time penalties and the Wildcats defense denied the Cardinals a first down, and with exactly one minute left on the clock the Wildcats took over the ball on downs on the 2 yard line.  With a victory assured, Lagow took a knee twice and Plano put its second game of 2012 in the books as a win.

This was the second game in as many weeks where Plano went into the locker room at halftime tied (last week 7-7, this week, 17-17) and ended the game with a 7 point margin of victory.

Unofficial Offensive Stats:  Passing – #22 Lagow 2 of 9 for 36yds, 0 TD & 0 INT; Receiving – #9 Anthony Antwine 1 for 22yds, #16 Mitchell Hansen 1 for 16yds; Rushing – #34 Andre Morman 16 carries for 174yds & 1 TD, #5 Braylan Campbell 7 for 46yds, #21 Lagow 6 for 7yds & 2 TDs, #22 Corey Robertson 5 for 8yds, #16 Hansen 1 for 2yds; Kicking/Punting – #96 Escobar was 3 for 3 on PATs and 2 for 2 on FGs (37yds, 26yds), #95 John Cummings 3 punts for an average of 36yds.

Official Defensive Stats – will be reported later this week upon receipt from the coaching staff.
