October 6, 2015 - Photos by Shelby County Today - The Joaquin Rams never let the Timpson Bears into last Friday's JHS Homecoming game and ultimately came away with a convincing 40-14 win. Joaquin used 488 yards of offense, and used a 5-yard score by Kase Yates and a 51-yarder by Nate Belrose to take a 22-0 lead by the conclusion of the first period of play.
Joaquin went up 34-0 with a 9-yard Yates touchdown with 3:39 remaining in the third quarter. Chris Piro got THS on the board with 50-yard reception from Chandler Burgay that went the distance with 2:46 left in the third stanza. The 2-point conversion attempt was intercepted and returned the distance by Ram Cole Powdrill but a block in the back penalty negated the would-be 2 points for JHS.
Peyton Martinez added a 52-yard score for Joaquin with less than two minutes left in the third frame which gave JHS a 40-6 lead.
The final score of the game came on a 3-yard touchdown by Hayden Smith with 8:02 left in the game. Burgay hit Hunter Smith for a 2-point conversion.

September 28, 2015 - Coach Ferguson,
Octavian Burrell has been nominated for the Mr. Texas Football Player of the Week award, presented by Dave Campbell’s Texas Football and Wells Fargo.
Octavian is one of ten nominees for the weekly statewide award, which is 100% decided by fan voting. The poll, located at www.texasfootball.com, closes Friday at noon. The recipe for success, we’ve found, is schools that utilize social media to spread the word to their students, faculty, staff, coaches, parents and anyone that supports their team and community.
Additionally, we’ve set up a Facebook page and Twitter feed that should help you spread the word virally through the community:

Editor's Note: The voting poll is located on the right side of page towards the bottom.
