Senior Cash Myrick got the start at quarterback for the Warriors, leading the offense through the first quarter before junior Robert Rubio took over signal-calling duties in the second quarter. The Warriors found themselves in a 34-0 deficit after Bradshaw Christian capitalized on two pick-six interceptions with 5 minutes and 56 seconds remaining in the first half.

Bradshaw Christian’s explosive offense proved difficult to contain, as the Pride racked up 240 rushing yards on just 13 carries for an impressive 18.5-yard average. 

Through the air, Bradshaw Christian was efficient when needed, with junior quarterback Sam Amezcua completing both of his pass attempts for 59 yards and a touchdown. Junior Evan Rickert hauled in a 45-yard touchdown reception, while the Pride’s defense forced four interceptions, returning them for 126 yards and multiple scores.

The halftime score stood at 48-0 in favor of Bradshaw Christian, and the Pride added another pick-six in the third quarter as the game moved to a running clock. Neither team found the end zone in the fourth quarter, with the final score settling at 60-0.

Despite the lopsided score, the Warriors showed fight until the final whistle. With 2 minutes and 53 seconds remaining and the clock running, Galt drove to the 10-yard line but was unable to break through for its first score of the evening.

“Tucker Alexander played a good game,” said Head Coach JJ Woodward. “He had an interception and led our team in rushing this week. The boys stuck together throughout the game and they had each other’s backs. Even in adversity, they stayed positive.”

Coach Woodward’s message to his team remained upbeat despite the challenging circumstances, as he could be heard encouraging his players to “just go out there and have some fun.”

The Warriors will look to regroup and bounce back as they continue their season, taking the lessons learned from this difficult contest and applying them moving forward. 

The team’s ability to maintain unity and positive attitudes in the face of adversity speaks to the character that Coach Woodward and his staff are building within the program.

The Warriors will return to action next week as they host Rosemont High School in their second league game.
