Taft took an early lead on the Comfort football team in Friday’s firstround playoff game in Seguin and never looked back, ending the Bobcats’ season Friday night.
The Greyhounds jumped out to a 31-0 lead over CHS before recording a 38-14 victory over the Bobcats.
Comfort’s season comes to an end at 3-8 while Taft improves to 9-2 and moves on to the second round of the 3A DII playoffs.
Joshua Suarez put the Greyhounds on the board with 8:40 left in the first quarter with a 6-yard touchdown run, and the extra point made it 7-0.
Later in the quarter, Aden Guidry booted a 26-yard field goal, and Taft took a 10-0 lead into the second quarter.
The Greyhounds added to their lead early in the second when Efrain Ozona caught an 8-yard TD pass from Johnny Acosta and the PAT made it 17-0 with 10:44 left before halftime.
It turned into a defensive battle the rest of the quarter as neither team scored before the break, and the Greyhounds held a 17-point lead at intermission.
Early in the third, Suarez scored on a 29-yard run and the Greyhounds increased its lead to 24-0. Later in the period Johnny Acosta tacked on another TD with an 18-yard run and Taft pulled ahead 31-0 with 1:55 left in the third.
Comfort finally got on the board later in the stanza after Micah Nye punched it in from the 1-yard line and it was 31-7 with 56 ticks left in the third after the Adolfo Campos kick.
The Bobcats scored again after Sam Tucker rambled in from 36 yards and it was 31-14 early in the fourth quarter.
But that’s as close as the Cats’ comeback would get.
Taft put the game away with a 1-yard run with 6:05 remaining to make it 38-14 which is where it stayed until the end.
