Retaining the hammer: Sachse uses huge first half to soar to rivalry win over Rowlett
Last season, Sachse held off Rowlett in a wild, high-scoring affair, emerging with a 48-41 victory.
On Friday, there was no such drama.
The Mustangs used a dominant defensive effort combined with an opportunistic offense to open a 31-0 halftime lead and they cruised to a 45-7 victory at Homer B. Johnson Stadium.
Sachse evens its overall record at 2-2, while more importantly, moving to 2-0 in 9-6A as it retains the “Hammer Trophy” given to the winner of each year’s rivalry match-up, while the Eagles fall to 1-3 overall and 1-1 in district play.
