The Vandegrift Vipers have emerged as a perennial 6A state power in recent years, and that was made perfectly clear this past Friday against district opponent Manor.
Louisville-commit Deuce Adams (Sr. QB) threw for 6 TDs and a banged up Viper defense allowed just one score – a consolation TD against the reserves with under 30 seconds remaining –as Vandegrift overwhelmed Manor 51-6 on Homecoming Night at Vandegrift’s Monroe Memorial Stadium.
Adams (16-21, 273 yds., 6 TDs) connected for two scoring strikes with his twin brother Eli Adams (5-131, 3 TDs), twice more with Sr. All-State candidate Miles Coleman (5-68, 2 TDs), and again with Jr. RB Brendan Fournier.
Additionally, Coleman scored his third career punt return for a TD, as the Vipers raced out to a 41-0 halftime lead. A third Adams-to-Adams connection and a 36-yard Field Goal from sophomore Wiley Olson – promoted from JV due to injury – completed the Vipers’ scoring.
Manor Sr. QB Jason Zardavets tossed a TD pass for the Mustangs’ only score. However, another major headline was that the Vipers defense limited Sr. RB Titus Petteway -- who’s been averaging over 250 yards rushing per game -- to just 74 yards on the night.
Vandegrift (5-0; 2-0 in district) next travels to Dragon Stadium in Round Rock to face McNeil. Manor (3-2; 1-1 in district) will soon host Round Rock.

The Bowie Bulldogs hosted the Austin High Maroons this past Friday night at Burger Stadium, in what would become an instant classic.
After falling behind 14-3 early in the game, the Maroons rallied to a 17-14 halftime score.
The second half was a back-and-forth affair, and despite the heroics of Bowie’s breakout sophomore WR Rowen Wells, an Austin High touchdown pass from senior QB Wilder Davenport to Christian Rector (Sr. WR) with 3 seconds left in the game gave the Maroons their first victory of the season, by the score of 31-27.
The Maroons (1-4 overall, 1-2 in district) will look to build on this victory as they prepare to face off against Buda Johnson on Thursday (10/5).
Bowie (2-4 overall, 2-2 in district) is idle this week on a bye, but will get back to action in against district 26-6A opponent Buda Johnson, next Thursday.

The Crockett Cougars hosted district rivals LASA (Liberal Arts & Science Academy) this past Thursday night at House Park.
The district 12-5A clash saw the Cougars earn their first district victory of the year to the tune of 56-0 scoreline, while the Raptors suffered their first overall defeat of the season.
Crockett's star senior QB Cam Dickey (Texas Tech-commit) ran for five touchdowns and added another through the air. Meanwhile a stout Cougars defense -- headlined by Caleb Dickey (Jr. DE), Anthony Saucedo (Sr. DB), and senior Byron Porter, among others -- held LASA scoreless, which amounts to the team's second shutout this year.
Crockett (2-3 overall, 1-1 in district) will look to ride their momentum into the heart of the district season, hosting Navarro next Friday (10/6).
LASA (4-1 overall, 1-1 in district), in its 4th year as a football program, will face district powerhouse LBJ on Friday.
