GALLERY: Southlake Carroll defeats Allen, heads to the state semifinals
Continuing their season of dominance, Southlake Carroll has extended their season record to 14-0 overall with an incredible victory over Allen on Saturday at Apogee Stadium- home of the North Texas Mean Green! VYPE DFW was there to catch all the action on Saturday!
Although the Allen Eagles were able to jump out to a very quick and exciting 7-0 lead after scoring in the first 13 seconds of the game, it didn't take long for Kaden Anderson and the rest of the Southlake Carroll Dragons to find their groove and take their destiny into their own hands. The Dragons scored four unanswered touchdowns- one of which was a pick six as Avyonne Jones nabbed a pass and ran it back 30 yards for a score- before Allen would put up anymore points on the board as time ticked down into halftime.
The third quarter saw extremely strong defensive plays from both teams resulting in no scores through the quarter. Allen was able to score one more touchdown in the fourth quarter, but the Eagles just didn't have the same level of energy that Southlake Carroll brought to the game. The win for Southlake Carroll sends them to the State Semifinals matchup in a rematch against Duncanville.
