Bobcat players celebrate a hard won victory.
Big plays made all the difference as the Hebbronville Longhorns and Skidmore-Tynan Bobcats faced off in Fridays first post-season playoff game. Hebbronville was first to put points on the board with a touchdown and failed extra point attempt. The Bobcats quickly answered with a Josh Manthei run into the end zone followed by Adam Aguilar’s extra point kick. The Bobcats continued to lead 7-6 through the third quarter in what would be a tight defensive battle. Prospects were looking good for the Bobcats in the fourth quarter after a 15 yard penalty pushed the Longhorns well back into their own territory. But the Longhorn quarterback pulled off a 75 yard touchdown pass that put the Longhorns ahead 12-7 with just a little over five minutes left in the ball game. Not to be outdone, the Bobcats answered with a 60 yard drive capped off by a Blake Stautzenberger touchdown and 2 point conversion. With just two minutes left on the scoreboard, the Bobcat defensive squad held on to the lead and the Bi-District Win. The Bobcats will face off with Yorktown in area playoffs at 7:30 pm Friday, November 19, again at Beeville’s Veterans Memorial Stadium. Go Bobcats!
