It was a long night the last time Cedar Park travelled to Killeen’s Joseph Searles Stadium as the Timberwolves suffered a 45-43 double-overtime loss to Harker Heights to open the season.
Fast-forward nearly a month and the Timberwolves were back in town. This time, Coach Michael Quintero’s squad dispatched the Killeen Chaparral Bobcats 44-12 in the District 8-5A-1 opener for both teams.
Ben Ramos’ 21-yard field goal and Lucas Viloria’s 3-yard touchdown run staked the T’wolves to a 10-0 lead after the opening frame. Following a Bobcat touchdown, Trae Hill (21-98, 3 TDs) scored the first of his three touchdowns to give Cedar Park a 17-6 lead at the half.
Hill would score again from 25 and 21 yards out, alternating with touchdown passes from David Cooper (17-31, 219 yds, 2 TDs) to Zane Claybrook and Jamall Porter.
Meanwhile, the Black Rain defense did its part, holding Chaparral to just 218 yards of total offense, much of that coming late in the game.
