The Royals were dominant, proving their a top team in District 5-5A D1. Quarterback Drew Kates passed for 197 yards and three touchdowns. Here’s what happened.
Richland dominated from the start, thoroughly defeating Carrollton Smith 54-14 Friday night at Birdville ISD Fine Arts/Athletics Complex to stay undefeated.
“Their quarterback and their running back can shake anybody,” Kates said. “… And so we really wanted to try to make them one dimensional, and we did.”Ged Kates is in his 25th year coaching football. Now, he’s coaching his son, Drew Kates, who made the transition from linebacker to quarterback. Ged Kates said he can handle the pressure and added it’s been a fun experience.
The Royals faked the PAT attempt and Kates threw to Ty Mcfarland, who was wide open for the reception. Mcfarland was voted the week seven Fort Worth-area player of the week. Richland’s offense kept putting points on the board. This time, running back Michael Turner found open grass, breaking free for a 72-yard touchdown.
With the game firmly out of reach, the Royals continued to score in the second half. Johnson recorded his second of the game. This time, it was a 38-yarder. Running back Za’Teon Harris scored the next one with a 15-yard rush.Kates called Johnson a “touchdown waiting to happen” and added he might be the “best blocking receiver in town.” Johnson gained 126 yards on five receptions, finding the end zone twice.
