7:00 PM, Friday, October 30, 2015
Pridgeon Stadium


Previously on Cy Woods Football...

The Wildcats still have a pulse in the playoff race, and a 44-7 demolition of Cy-Fair on Thursday at the Berry Center confirmed that. C.J. Jones ran roughshod on the Bobcats to the tune of 180 yards and a touchdown on 21 carries. Jordan Johnson caught 2 passes; both of them were touchdowns. 

On defense, Woods held Fair to just 202 yards of total offense and kept them confined to their own side of midfield for virtually the entire game.

2¢ on Jersey Village

The Falcons, like many of the teams in this district, harbored playoff aspirations. Unfortunately, a dreadful start knocked them out of the race early. This, however, is a team that has taken the last two meetings from Cy Woods after the Wildcats had completely dominated the series in the first 5 years.

Deshun Qualls enters his 3rd season as the face of the Falcons. He's their do-it-all guy and is one of the most exciting players in the district. Qualls welcomes back his top 4 receivers: Rokeem Paul, Brandon Major, Austin Lynch, and Josh Bland. Qualls to Paul was a common sight during Falcons games in 2014 as they built a great rapport together, and it's been more of the same in 2015. Gardner is the anchor of the offensive line.

Clabe Holmes, Juwan Morgan, and Mason Mireles are all veterans in the Falcon secondary. Jaylen Miller spent his first 3 years of high school at Cy Woods before moving to Jersey Village as a senior. The Falcons also sport a solid front line featuring Newton, Clarkson, and Turner.

Last Time These Two Teams Met

The Wildcats held a 14-3 lead after the first quarter, but Deshun Qualls took over afterwards as Jersey Village outscored Cy Woods 35-10 between the 2nd and 3rd quarters. The Falcons tacked on another score in the 4th to go up 44-24, but the Wildcats managed to launch a comeback bid that ultimately fell just short. They couldn't get the final stop they so desperately needed in order to give the offense a shot at completing the comeback, and they fell by a final score of 44-38.
