With the ball in his hands, Sac Valley Defensive Tackle, Elijah-Doug Washington, a cattle ranch farmhand from Northwestern Texas, was surprisingly fast for his size and weight. Huygens 10 - Sac Valley 7.

“Sac Valley has done some fine recruiting on Texas farms,” Durango commented. “They have substantial scholarship funding for their Ranch Management program.”
Griff looked up at the stands where AKA Harvey was sitting beside Abigail, seemingly distracted by the top buttons undone on her gray silk shirt -- but not so distracted that he did not remember the short-lived time when the Raiders somehow read Steelers signs. On the Sac Valley side, congratulatory man hugs were in progress. Harvey made a series of odd gestures.
Griff grinned. Following his own playbook, he conferred with Durango and Peggy, subbed position-versatile, unruly 260 pound Damian Jefferson Tyler (Oakland Tech High School) into the 0-line.
Post-punt, lined up on their own 20 yard line, Huygens Center Big Dog snapped the ball to River. River did not look at what Damian was semi-respectfully doing to the Texas-ranch bred tackles. In the stands, Harvey was happily remembering the thrill of O-line and D-line battles.
Unimpeded in the pocket, River threw a velocity-laden long vertical to DeJuan. First and 10 at midfield.
