Schulenburg at Rogers

When: 7:30 p.m. Friday Where: Rogers Records: Schulenburg is 0-1. Rogers is 1-0.

Of Note: The Shorthorns will try to put a frustrating season opener behind them as they go to Rogers this week. Last week the Shorthorns lost to Randolph 42-20, but there were some encouraging signs, especially the play of Schulenburg junior quarterback Tyler Ryba, who ran for 115 yards and threw for 154. Defensively, however, there are new question marks. The only time last year that the Shorthorns gave up 42 points or more was to eventual state champ Shiner ... Rogers, meanwhile, is coming off a 29-23 win over Little River Academy. Rogers QB Cooper Sisneroz, making his first-ever varsity start, threw for 64 yards and ran for 115 yards. The go-ahead touchdown for Rogers came on a nine-yard touchdown run by Zach Davis on a reverse with just over three minutes left in the game. Rogers returns four offensive and five defensive starters from last year’s team that went 7-4. They are picked to finish second to Lexington this season in District 13-3A.
