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.
