Season in Review

Magnolia Heights School  22
MRA  7  (0 - 2 overall, 0 & 0 conference)
Friday, August 29

MRA missed several opportunities for the 2nd week in a row as the Patriots saw two 80 yard touchdowns called back for illegal blocks.  The Patriots also had 5 turnovers on the night to go along with the two costly penalties.  Ben Hutton did rush for over 100 yards for the second week in a row.  His 60 yard touchdown run on MRA's first play from scrimmage offered the Patriots hope early, but the offense would not be able to put any more points on the board.

MRA  14  (0 - 1 overall, 0 & 0 conference)
Jackson Academy  21
Thursday, August 21

MRA missed several opportunities in this game to come away with a win, but the Patriots instead went down in defeat.  MRA's Houston Myhan scored on a 1 yard sneak in the 2nd quarter, and Brandon Self scored from 6 yards out in the 3rd to tie the game at 14.  MRA held JA to a missed field goal attempt early in the 4th quarter and felt the momentum of their 3rd quarter touchdown, but a lightning storm provided an unwanted break in the action.  After the weather delay, MRA's drive stalled out and the Patriots punted to the Raiders.  JA moved the ball into MRA territory before the Raider fullback broke loose on a 39 yard touchdown run.  MRA's last drive of the game was a promising one, but a failed 4th down pass to the endzone gave the ball back to JA.
