The game was aired nationally on ESPN2 and played in front of a sold out stadium. It was a defensive grudge match for most of the game until Duncanville’s running game took over in the fourth quarter. The score ended up being 23-10 in Duncanville’s favor with them finishing with an impressive 200+ rushing yards on 34 attempts with around a 5.91 yards per carry. South Oak Cliff had a good overall showing but the defensive pressure that Duncanville was able to apply turned out to be too much to overcome.

If game balls were given out for outstanding performance then Colin definitely deserves to receive the first one. He played lights out and was an absolute menace coming off of the edge all night and applied major pressure. The SOC offensive line did all they could to keep him at bay but he was still able to finish the day with two sacks. Its
Caden Durham Caden Durham 5'10" | 185 lbs | RB Duncanville | 2024 State TX – Duncanville High – Class of 2024
Caden looked like a man among boys and put his world class speed on display early by taking a 99 yard run to the house. He was the 2022 national champion in the 100 meters last year and he put the jets on full display on the play linked below that eventually went viral and made sports center. The 5’10 190 pound speedster is primed for a huge year and will be one of the most exciting players to watch as the season progresses. He has offers from virtually every program in the country and is rumored to have Nick Saban and the Alabama Crimson Tide as a early favorite to land his services.
Benjamin Taylor-Whitfield – Duncanville High- Class of 2023
From my perspective he had a dominate performance and put greats reps together all night on film. In the previously mentioned 99 yard run his block and seal up on the linebacker is what sprung that play. He displayed great body control, violent hands, and didn’t get flustered when caught out of position. His position Coach Xavier Joe, has had expectations for him and he has responded valiantly. The TCU commit will have to keep playing big to help Duncanville maintain their winning streak as they head into a bye week before taking on Lake Ridge Mansfield on September, 16th.
