Rockwall vs. Highland Park - Friday, September 17 at 7:30 p.m.
Each and every time the Rockwall Yellowjackets have stepped onto the field this season they have proved their motto: "Jacket Fight Never Dies!" With quarterback Braedyn Locke in charge, Rockwall is going to have a fun outing against Highland Park. So far on the season, Locke has thrown for over 1,000 yards with 10 passing touchdowns while Noble Johnson has tallied 435 receiving yards and six receiving touchdowns on 19 carries. Zach Hernandez has recorded 447 rushing yards and six rushing touchdowns on 71 carries. Rockwall's offense and defense have both taken this season by the horns.
Highland Park has had an unusually "off" start to their season. With an opening loss to Southlake Carroll followed by a close win over Flower Mond and a two-score win over Coppell, the Scots have more to prove in Friday's game. Quarterback Brennan Storer holds a 58% pass completion with 547 passing yards, six passing touchdowns, one rushing touchdown, and 28 carries to his name. Although the Scots are strong in offense with John Rutledge (154 yards, two touchdowns, 12 catches), Jay Cox (130 yards, two touchdowns, eight catches), and Christian Reeves (163 yards, two touchdowns, 35 carries), the defense is going to have to be at the top of their game in order to shut down a Rockwall team that's on anothe level this season.
It will be phyiscal. This is bound to be the best Friday game in the metroplex by far with two teams who bring such a great atmosphere to each of their games. Rockwall fans can expect to see a big game from Locke and his Jackets.
