– After coming to Raines from its biggest rival, Timothy Cole has embraced the Vikings culture and in turn been embraced by the school’s students and fans and definitely his new teammates.Cole, the ex-Ribault quarterback, was a key component for the Vikings against a more recent rival — Bolles . Cole passed for 339 yards and three touchdowns, while the Raines defense smothered the host Bulldogs during a season-opening 32-23 victory in the Varsity 4 Game of the Week.
“At Raines, they ask for a quarterback who can run, a quarterback who can throw. I felt like I could come over and be the guy to help them win a state championship.” Cole seemed like the perfect Raines guy against Bolles . He spread the ball around, with four different Raines receivers hauling in 50-plus receiving yards, led by A’dron Walker, who had 100 receiving yards and a pair of touchdowns.
That gave the Vikings the lead for good against a team that had won four in a row against them, three in the playoffs, since Raines last defeated Bolles in the 2015 postseason. But the Bulldogs had trouble doing anything with the ball, aside from an 11-play touchdown drive in the first quarter. Bolles was stopped for a loss or no gain on 12 of its 30 rushes and only gained one or two yards on four more attempts, meaning more than half of the Bulldogs rushing attempts went for two yards or fewer.
