Friday Night Bi-Stone Football Previews

Thu, 09/11/2025 - 6:39am

Mexia Blackcats 5-3A DI (0-2) at Gatesville Hornets 12-4A DII (2-0) Friday, Sept. 12, at McKamie Stadium in Gatesville The Blackcats are hoping to come away with the upset this week against Gatesville. Last Friday night, Mexia dropped a hard fought contest to Fairfield, 66-0, at home. The Blackcat offense will need to have a breakout game to win it. Coach Aaron Nowell says his guys have the capability to improve all aspects of their team. “We will continue to work hard at becoming a better football team as we prepare for Gatesville this Friday night,” Coach Nowell said. While the offense has to get the ball into the end zone, the Blackcats defense will need to get wound up and put a stop to the Hornets offense. Look for Keydralin Hudson, Montrell Carter, Gabriel Gutierrez, and Kash Williams to lead the Mexia D in that direction. Gatesville enters Friday night’s contest with two big wins under their belt, the latest a 30-7 defeat of Glen Rose on the road. Hornet players to watch will be WR Amos Phillips (10153-1 against Glen Rose), QB Gehrig Keeton (14-19186-1), RB Samuel Howard III, and athlete Brady Gist.
