Dylan Hollis escapes for some of 126 yards. |
Hollis, injured for a good portion of last season, led the Rockets with 126 yards on a dozen carries. He handled more of the load because starting tailback Lane Wallace played a limited role on offense because of a sprained ankle. Still, Wallace rushed a half dozen times for 48 yards, including two touchdowns. He, too, had an interception.
Crittenden let Fulton QB Michael Thomas throw for 354 yards, but the Bulldogs had little to show for it. Crittenden was able to limit the damage by picking him off four times. Jacob Greenwell and Seth Birdwell also had interceptions.
The Rockets have beaten Fulton 15 out of their last 16 meetings since 1994. Next year, the teams will be in the same district. Now, the Rockets are 2A and Fulton 1A.
