Run Defense Optional

It is reported that a number of fans who witnessed last nights' district 13-5A contest between The Belton Tigers and the Killeen Shoemaker Grey Wolves will be seeking help from their local chiropractor in the near future due to neck problems.

The two teams went up and down the field more on Friday night than a West Texas jackrabbit being chased by a pack of hound dogs.

The two teams combined for over 1300 yards in the game that was finally won by Belton, 47-45. The catch? Only 56 of the yards were gained through the air, meaning the teams harkened back to the days of the NFL Los Angeles Rams coach Chuck Knox and his "ground Chuck" attack.

Shoemaker running back Dion Demers (pictured) had a huge game with 306 yards and two touchdowns on 21 carries and his total was only second best on the evening.

Belton ball carrier Keith Daniels led all rushers, romping for 375 yards and three scores on 37 totes. His total broke Ramonce Taylor's school record of 347 yards.

Shoemaker QB Andre Smith chipped in with a pedestrian 222 yards and two touchdowns on 21 rushes.

Yes the chiropractors in Central Texas will see increased activity come Monday morning, all due to a night when run defense was optional.
