Holliday churned out nearly 400 yards on the ground, averaging 8.7 yards per carry in a 37-7 romp of previously 10th-ranked Idalou. The Eagles moved up to No. 2 in the DCTF/AP rankings following the win. Regional rival and postseason nemesis Gunter remains No. 1. “Some of the teams that are normally as good as anybody in the state are a little down,” Eagles head coach Frank Johnson said. “It’s been a rebuilding year for several teams we’ve got on our schedule. We didn’t know that when we scheduled them. I think we’ve got a chance to be good eventually. We’ve still got some work to do. I felt like we made strides tonight, especially with some of these backups.”

Archer City freshman quarterback Joe Castles tossed four touchdowns for the second straight game, going 17-of-21 through the air for 336-yards as the Wildcats knocked off Anson 34-17 on Friday, Sept. 2.

Holliday built a 41-7 lead and never looked back, dominating in all phases in a 41-19 rout of Jim Ned on Friday, Sept. 2. The Eagles scored on six of their first seven drives to build a commanding halftime lead and never looked back.
