Hillcrest-Tuscaloosa piled up 336 rushing yards and scored on both sides of halftime to hand Hewitt-Trussville High School's football team a 42-20 loss on Friday night.
Jack Floyd got the Huskies on the board first, capping an opening drive with a 1-yard touchdown run, and later found DJ Hall for a 48-yard score to make it 14-0. But Hillcrest answered with touchdown runs from Jacoby Harris on drives of 4 and 80 yards to tie the game at 14-14, and a 43-yard field goal from Rivers Harbison put Hewitt-Trussville back on top, 17-14, at the end of the first quarter.
Hillcrest took control from there. Harris scored again on a 32-yard run, and Dylan Taylor added a 22-yard touchdown run to push the lead to 28-17 by halftime, with Harbison connecting on a 24-yard field goal in the fourth quarter to get Hewitt-Trussville within 28-20. Taylor closed the game with two more short touchdown runs in the fourth quarter to seal the 42-20 final.
Harris finished with 245 yards and three touchdowns on 16 carries, and Taylor added 73 yards and three touchdowns of his own. Hillcrest quarterback Jordan Shambley was 6 of 12 passing for 64 yards.
Floyd threw for 191 yards and a touchdown on 19-of-29 passing for Hewitt-Trussville, and Hall caught six passes for 89 yards and the score. Daniel Williams added 63 rushing yards.
Hewitt-Trussville fell to 1-1 and hosts Hoover next Friday to open Class 6A, Region 3 play.
Cougars fall at top-ranked Thompson
Clay-Chalkville couldn't keep pace with Thompson's passing attack, falling 37-13 on Thursday night at Warrior Stadium.
Clay-Chalkville struck first, going 80 yards on its opening drive as CJ Eldridge found Nasir Ray for a 31-yard touchdown to make it 7-0. Thompson answered quickly, needing just three plays to tie it on a 47-yard touchdown pass from Trent Seaborn to Mason McClure.
Thompson took control from there. Seaborn hit Darion Moseley for a 56-yard score on the first play of the second quarter, then added a 7-yard touchdown pass to CJ Cowley before halftime to make it 20-7. A field goal in the third quarter extended the lead to 23-7, and two more Thompson touchdowns in the fourth, a 15-yard pass to Tanner Ehmen and a 7-yard run from Jafari Pegues, pushed the margin to 37-7 before Clay-Chalkville's final score.
Eldridge finished 12 of 28 passing for 164 yards and a touchdown, also rushing for 40 yards and capping the scoring with a 5-yard touchdown run on a 20-play, 80-yard drive that ran out the final 9:43 of the game. Cartier Barnes caught four passes for 72 yards, and OJ Hill added 33 yards on 11 carries.
Seaborn was efficient in the win, completing 22 of 25 passes for 292 yards and four touchdowns. Moseley led all receivers with nine catches for 154 yards and a score.
Clay-Chalkville fell to 1-2 with the loss and travels to Springville on Sept. 4.
