Argyle42
Wilmer-Hutchins6
ARGYLE — On a night when Argyle’s offense struggled to get going, its defense and special teams more than picked up the slack.

In the second half, the Argyle offense got going as running back Nick Ralston finished with 95 yards on the ground and two second-half touchdowns.
Wilson, a move-in from Coppell, who now has six interceptions on the season, returned one 49 yards for an Argyle score in the third quarter.
Argyle’s defense held Wilmer-Hutchins (2-2) to 230 total yards.

Aubrey16
Sanger14
SANGER — Inopportune penalties, miscues and turnovers have kept Sanger from recording its first victory of the year.
It was more of the same — with an added dose of Daniel Longhenry — that helped Aubrey (2-3) make sure that elusive first win would not come Friday night. Longhenry rushed for a game-high 126 yards on 23 carries and scored a touchdown to help Aubrey hold off Sanger at Indian Stadium.
Sanger (0-5) twice moved inside the 20-yard line and looked prime for a score, only to turn the ball over both times. Sanger had an opportunity to take the lead midway through the third quarter after a Dalton Hassell 35-yard interception return and two Aubrey unsportsmanlike conduct penalties placed the ball inside the 5.
But Aubrey’s defense didn’t budge, holding Sanger to 4 yards on its first three downs and setting up a fourth-and-goal from 1. Trailing 16-14, Sanger bypassed the field goal and quarterback Wyatt Broxston was swarmed for a 2-yard loss.
