It was a slow start for the Dragon’s in there second home game at Osteen Field. The Warriors took possession on there own 20 yard line where Jarvis Braxton of Central broke the first play for a big gain over the left side. The Dragons would see Jarvis another 25 times on the night. The drive was killed inside the 10 yard line from solid play from the defense.

The Dragon offense with little room to work was stalled at the 15 yard line and was forced to punt. Senior Brock Merryman the Dragon punter sailed a kick past the Warrior return man for a net 60 yard punt, giving room for the Dragons to work. Central was able to drive the ball into Dragon territory where the Dragons stiffened and stopped the drive.

This time with field position the Dragons went to work. Solid runs by Seniors Cody McMeans, Brian Hall and Junior Noel Moyes moved the ball into Warrior territory. McMeans (7 rushes for 52 yards) broke into the clear for a 17 yard touchdown scamper. The extra point by Senior Brett Caldwell was good and the Dragons lead 7 to 0. This time it was three and out for the Warriors, and when Senior Jonathon Abel broke free to block the Warrior punt and returned it 21 yards the game rolled into high gear.

The Warriors with some time left to work in the half began again on offense, the Dragon D was able to stop the drive with under a minute remaining in the half. With very little time to work Senior Brian Hall scrambled right and connected with Taylor Walker for a 42 yard gain along the right sideline. On the last play of the half, kicker Brett Caldwell made the 39 yard field goal to give the Dragons a 17 point advantage at halftime.

The Dragons began the second half with the ball after a short kickoff gave Collierville good field position. It took just a few plays before Hall hooked up with Taylor Walker again on a 20 yard timing play in the end zone. Caldwell converted the extra point and the Dragons led 24 to 0.

The rest of the game was all downhill for the Dragons with Senior Quarterback Brian Hall leading the way. Brian finished with 8 carries for 93 yards leading the Dragon offense. Brian recorded touchdown runs of 21 and 7 yards in the second half. A 25 yard field goal by Caldwell completed the scoring.

The Dragons are again in action this Friday September 3rd when they entertain league foe Hamilton at 7:30 pm at Osteen Field.
