The Trojans started the game
sluggish...a trend that must come to an end. However, JOCO overcame
the sluggish start to walk away with an easy victory...a trend that needs to
continue. Wheeler County took the opening kickoff and put together an
impressive drive. The Bulldogs went 58 yards in 12 plays to take a 7-0
lead. The drive also took 8:28 off the clock. The Wheeler County
lead would not last long. After Taurus Mosley returned the kickoff 26
yards the Trojans started at the Wheeler 48. It took JOCO five plays
to score...two of the plays were loss yardage plays because of a bad pitch
and a bad snap. D. J. Rozier hit Zack Walker twice on the drive, with
the final one being a 25 yard touchdown. Alex Allen kicked the extra
point to tie the game at 7. On Wheeler County's next possession they
managed to pick up two first downs before the game turned in favor of the
Trojans for good. A Bulldog fumble at midfield was scooped up by Zack
Walker and returned for a touchdown. The PAT failed and JOCO led 13-7.
The JOCO defense forced a three and out on Wheeler's next possession and a
49 yard punt return by Zack Walker set the Trojans up at the Wheeler 26.
On the third play D. J. Rozier hit Zack Walker for a 20 yard touchdown.
The PAT once again failed and JOCO led 19-7. Wheeler County fumbled on
their next play from scrimmage and the Trojans were in business again at the
Wheeler 33. On the Trojans' first play Shamarko Brown ran in for the
score. With the third straight PAT failure JOCO led 25-7. The
JOCO defense forced another three and out on Wheeler's next possession and
Zack Walker returned this punt 33 yards down to the Wheeler 44. The
Trojans scored in four plays. Zack Walker scored his fourth touchdown
of the half on a 9 yard touchdown reception. The conversion run by
Dovsavious Brown failed and JOCO led 31-7. Wheeler County managed one
first down on their next possession before turning the ball over on downs at
the Johnson County 46. The Trojans ran three plays. The final
one was a 37 yard pass from D.J. Rozier to Shamarko Brown. Curt Irwin
ran in the conversion to give JOCO 39-7 lead with 46 seconds remaining in
the half. D. J. Rozier intercepted a pass on the last play of the
half. The Trojans scored seven touchdowns in the half while running
only 16 plays and having the ball for only 6 minutes and 39 seconds.
The second half was pretty much
non-eventful. The Trojans had the ball four times. The Trojans
turned the ball over on downs on the first drive, punted on the second
drive, scored on the third drive and fumbled on their last drive.
Larry Taylor scored the touchdown from nine yards out. Wheeler County
also had the ball four times in the second half. The Bulldogs fumbled
on their first drive, punted on their second drive, punted on their third
drive and the game ended on their fourth drive. The Trojans JV got to
play the final series on offense and defense.
The Trojans were led by Zack
Walker. Zack caught 6 passes for 102 yards, recovered two fumbles (one
went 50 yards for a touchdown) and returned two punts for 82 yards. In
addition to Zack's two fumble recoveries the defense was led by D. J. Rozier
(interception), Gaige Bryan (fumble recovery), Dovsavious Brown (9 tackles),
Trevyon Smith (8 tackles) and Jake Scott (7 tackles). |
