Mustangs stampede past Eagles for rivalry win

by | Nov 15, 2018 | Sports

Sachse used the hammer to knock out rival Rowlett in the District 10-6A football finale.

The Mustangs rolled 48-0 over the Eagles on Friday, Nov. 9 to claim the Hammer Bowl trophy at Homer B. Johnson Stadium.

“Before the game the locker room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. They were focused on winning the game and did just that,” SHS head coach Mark Behrens said.

With the win they wrapped up a third straight district title after going 7-0. They also improved to 7-3 after a 0-3 start to the season.
