ALAMO HEIGHTS 34 and KERRVILLE TIVY 26

On Friday, November 9th, our Mules defeated the Kerrville Tivy "Antlers" in their own backyard with a thrilling come-from-behind victory. The score with 9-minutes left in the football game was the Antlers 26 and the Mules 7.... fast forward to 3-minutes left and the score was Mules 27 and the Antlers 26 (that is three TDs in 6-minutes)... and blow ahead to 30 seconds left in the game and the score was Heights 34 and Tivy 26.

Some salient points were that Kerrvilee Tivy came into the game with a 9-0 overall record and ranked #8 in the State of Texas by the Associated Press. They came to this game with a 6-3 inch, 230 lbs, LSU commitment at Linebacker, Kyle Prater. They brought a Place Kicker, Logan Vick, who had kicked two 51-yard Field Goals in the season, meaning that this team could score after just crossing mid-field... and finally they brought a bunch of big athletic country boys that know how to play as a team, and were ready to for some redemption over a team, ours, that handily beat them last year.... this was a darn good football team our boys defeated, that CONTINUES to be held in high regard following its loss to the Mules. An example being the fact that Texas High School Football Analysis Experts have picked Tivy to win the Region IV 4A Division II crown

This game was like a tapestry of important Offensive & Defensive plays, where if any one of the following "Big Plays" did not unfold (as well as many other plays), our Mules would have likely not prevailed... BUT PREVAIL THEY DID!!! And it was accomplished primarily by our gang NEVER GIVING UP even though the likilihood of winning appeared to be remote as we moved into the 4th Quarter of this game.
