The Aubrey Chaparrals varsity football team hosted the Van Alstyne Panthers at home in Week 2, and both teams lit up the scoreboard at Chaparral Stadium, combining for over 700 yards of offense, with the Panthers escaping with the 4136 win.
The Panthers hit the ground running and took a lead in the first half, but the Chaparrals made a furious second-half comeback but fell short for the second week in a row.
“We played exceptionally hard, but the second week in a row, we got off to a slow start,” said Keith Ivy, Aubrey athletic director and head football coach. “That’s a big emphasis for us going into this week, trying to start fast so that we’re not facing a deficit at halftime and having to make a comeback, but we’re doing good things in all three phases of the game. We just need to be more consistent.”
