Ryan's Anthony Hill Junior is one of the best junior defensive players in the nation.
But against Longview he'd show he can be "offensive" as well as he busts into the end zone to give the Raiders a 17-7 halftime lead.
Second half, here comes that Ryan Defense. Hey, Joshua Thomas....look out....Mason Davis knocks the ball loose and Ravonte Blowe recovers in the red zone. That would lead to a field goal, 20-7 Raiders.
They would finally get something going in the passing game in the 3rd quarter. Khalon Davis to Austin Jordan on the screen. Jordan does the rest. That's a 50 yard score and it's 27-14 Ryan.
Next possession, it worked once, right? Why not again. This time Davis drops it in the bread basket for Jordan on the 37 yarder. Ryan would stave off a furious Longview comeback to win it 37-33. They will face College Station next Friday in Waco.
