Dripping Springs (2-0) amassed 503 total yards on the night, but did most of its damage on the ground.

Four Tiger players finished in double figures in rushing yardage, led by quarterback Trevor Greenman, who finished with 132 yards and a pair of rushing touchdowns. Tiger running back Joe Cox gained 64 yards on 14 carries, while wide receiver Reed Beverly had 53 yards rushing on one carry. Tiger Keith Mitchhart finished with 45 yards rushing.

Greenman was also effective through the air, completing 76 percent of his passes. Greenman went 10 of 13 for 174 yards and three touchdowns passing.

On the defensive side, Dripping Springs limited Ranger quarterback Jacob Taute to only 39 yards passing. The Ranger offense finished with 260 total yards on the day.

Dripping Springs and Vista Ridge were tied 7-7 in the first quarter when the Tigers exploded for 26 unanswered points to close the half. The scoring outburst was highlighted by a 73-yard touchdown pass from Greenman to wide receiver Parker Alford. Greenman also contributed a 47-yard touchdown run before halftime.

Dripping Springs continued the onslaught in the second half aided by a 31-yard touchdown run by Mitchhart, followed by a 53-yard touchdown run by Beverly.

Dripping Springs travels to play in-county rival Hays at Bob Shelton Stadium on Sept. 15 at 7:30 p.m.
