Tivy Starts Off Strong

The Antlers traveled to Comalander Stadium at Blossom Athletic Complex in San Antonio for their first regular season game versus San Antonio Roosevelt Roughriders. The Antlers' offense put up 49 points to defeat the Roughriders 49-28.

From the Kerrville Daily Times:

Behind almost 400 yards of total offense and seven touchdowns from Tivy senior quarterback Colton Palmer, the Antlers cruised past a much larger Rough Riders squad that came into this season with high expectations.

“We’re excited as can be,” Tivy coach Mark Smith said. “To come here, play a Northeast school and play the way we did, it’s a big plus for us. It gives us a starting point.”

Palmer helped power the Antlers’ offense by completing an almost perfect 29-of-32 night, throwing for 321 yards and 4 touchdowns. He also ran for two scores and caught another.

“Once we got in that rhythm, we just started clicking and just started rolling and it was easy,” Palmer said.
