Opening Night, leaves the Bulls with un-finished Business

Bulls fans; The Hickory Ridge season kicked off tonight with visiting Carson High. Carson received the opening kickoff, but an effective Bulls defense came out charging. When the offense took their first possession of the 2009 campaign and tuned it into points.
Cody Cothern scored a TD on a 68 yard run around the right side. PAT good and the Bulls were off to a great start, 7-0.

Coye Still picked up the Bulls second score during the second quarter on a 15 yard scamp through Carson. PAT was blocked, HRHS 13, Carson 0.

Late in the first half, Carson's most explosive weapon, Shaun Warren blistered the Bulls defense on a 30 yard run giving us a 13-7 score at the half.

In the 3rd, QB Blake Sides calls his own number for a 2 yard run to extend the Bulls lead to 19-7. The extra point was a failed attempt to run around the right side after a high snap.

Carson found new life with running back Shaun Warren. He ripped off several big runs capping them off with a 13 yard TD. PAT blocked and we have a game on our hands as we go to the 4th.

Mother Nature stepped in as the Bulls took the kickoff. Officials, taking a safety first approach called for a 30 min delay due to lighting in the area. Once the teams returned from the locker rooms, the game was suspended due to lighting.

Play will resume on Saturday, 8-22-09 at 7 PM EDT to run the final 11:38 of the game clock.

Come on out fans, the game is shaping up to be a good one!

Go Bulls!
