The other guy came at him first. He didn't take too kindly to getting tossed aside, so Dominique had no choice but to defend himself there. Dominique wasn't looking for a fight... he just stood his ground and hit back when the other guy got in his face.

Bryce Callahan might have been the most talented player on the 2009 Cypress Woods Wildcats defense, but in my opinion, Dominique Robertson was not only in the same tier as Bryce athletically, he was the heart and soul of that unit. He was probably the most athletically gifted linebacker to ever come through the program; it was clear that he had the heart and the talent to match. Dominique was one of the most passionate competitors that I have ever seen on the football field and a man who I would want to have on my side in a battle.

On occasion, he'd line up as a defensive end in pass-rush situations and it just wasn't fair. Opposing linemen had absolutely no chance of containing him. Case in point: Westwood's left tackle in the clip above.

Dominique Robertson was a unanimous 1st-team All-District 15-5A selection in 2009. After Cy Woods, he played college football at Tulane, where he battled Bryce and the Rice Owls in Conference USA.
