Fredericksburgs Junior Varsity had a perfect play call right off the bat, when on the kick-off, Canyon Lake thought they had the returner with a short return….then a pass laterally to Sammy Studebaker was set up with a wall of blockers.
Result? Seventeen seconds into the game and the Billies had a 7-0 lead and looking at a stunned Hawk team across the field.
All was not lost, however, as this Hawk team proceeded to march 75 yards in 11 plays tying the game with a touchdown.
Seven minutes was worked off the clock and so for comparison sakes:
Fredericksburg had the ball for 17 seconds and a score.
Canyon Lake had the ball for 6:14 seconds and a score.
The Junior Varsity had 30 yards through the air and 40 yards on the ground for their first drive.
Canyon Lake had another chance for a quick score, but an interception stopped a scoring opportunity.
On their first drive, Fredericksburg had three of four plays that gained 36 yards in the opposite direction. Errant snaps were the culprit on two of those plays and one was on a punt.
