The Wildcats (4-0) jumped out to a 28-point halftime lead and routed the Eagles 59-21 at Ray Akins Wildcat Stadium on Friday, Sept. 18.
During the scoring onslaught in the first half, Carter Dominguez scored on two TD runs and added another 90-yard touchdown pass to Conner Haubelt late in the opening quarter. Sophomore running back Kaden Bellard added a TD run in the first quarter to complete a 28-0 halftime lead.
The Eagles did not score until the 4:37 mark of the third quarter but by them, the Wildcats were already up 38-7. Cohen Bartee then returned the kickoff 105 yards for a score with 4:23 remaining in the third to open up the lead to 45-7. Darion Blackshere and Bartee added the final two scores in the victory.
Meanwhile, Gregory-Portland’s defense stymied the Eagles all night as both scores came late in the fourth quarter when the came was out of reach.
