Ten Years, Ten Best Games - #9: Katy Taylor, 2010

The next entry in this series is a playoff game that still stands as the most lopsided victory in Cy Woods football history.


After outlasting Eisenhower in the first round of the 2010 playoffs, the Cy Woods Wildcats traveled to Tully Stadium for the area round to take on the Katy Taylor Mustangs, who topped Chavez in their bi-district matchup.

It was business as usual for the Wildcats as they dominated the Mustangs in all facets of the game and disposed of them quickly and painfully. The Cats led 53-0 at halftime and cruised for the final 24 minutes on their way to a 67-7 victory. The Mustangs' only points came on a fumble recovery for a touchdown, so the Wildcat defense pitched a shutout. Just about every person who dressed for this game got to play... including a freshman named Samuel Stewart.

When a game is that out of hand, the final score usually speaks for itself. The 60-point margin of victory still stands as not just the most lopsided win in Cy Woods football history; it is also the most lopsided point differential in a Cy Woods game, regardless of the result. No doubt, Woods was on a mission that season... Taylor was just standing in the way and the buzzsaw claimed another victim.
