Five total touchdowns from senior quarterback Cooper McCollum Friday, along with three turnovers by the Texan defense, anchored a 48-27 Wimberley home win over the Llano Yellowjackets.
The Texans took a 14-0 lead in the first quarter thanks to lengthy touchdown runs from Wimberley’s stable of running backs. Sophomore Juan Olmedo opened with a 73-yard touchdown run on the Texans’ opening possession, followed by a 26-yard catch-and-run touchdown from sophomore Moses Wray on a screen pass by McCollum later in the quarter.
Llano answered back in the second quarter with 21 straight points on three touchdown passes from quarterback Braxton Vickers. Vickers hit receiver Case Kuykendall on a 14-yard score, and then had back-to-back deep completions of 57 and 93-yard touchdowns to wide receiver Quincy Prince to take a 21-14 lead.
