#24 Vasquez intercepts Warren. #27 Garcia would also steal one from Warren later

The Clark Cougars varsity football team, #1 in San Antonio, #11/21 in Texas (Dave Campbell/5ATexasfootball.com) exacted a bit of revenge on the Warren Warriors with a 27-17 victory.  The win gave the Cougars an 8-0 record, perfect in play this season.  Last season Warren ended the Cougars’ win streak at 7.

The Warriors scored first with an opening drive that resulted in a field goal and 3 point lead.  On the first possession for the Cougars,  a five play drive ended with Hayden Greenbauer scoring from 5 yds. out to give the Cougars a 7-3 1st qtr. score.  Joe Vasquez would get the ball back for the Cougars with an athletic interception with 4:02 left in the 1st qtr.  That would set up a Webb Williams 23 yd. field goal to give the Cougars a 7 point lead with a little over 11 minutes to play in the half.  The Cougars weren’t done with the end zone, however, as Joey Cammer tacked on a 1 yd. rushing TD with 5 minutes left in the half.  When both teams left the field, Clark had a 17-3 lead.

In the 2nd half, Clark would turn over the opening kickoff, giving Warren a chance to get back in it, converting it for a TD but still trailing 17-10.  A second Clark fumble gave Warren life but the defense held and Clark  took over.  A nine play drive would set up another Webb Williams field goal, this time a 45 yd. effort, giving Clark a 20-10 lead going into the 4th qtr.
