The first score came in the first quarter when Woody Woods hauled in a fumble on the Brenham four. Joe Boettcher took the ball in for six points. The touchdown that assured Huntsville of a win came early in the fourth quarter as Kenny Wilder sped 36 yards. Later in the fourth Mike Murray ran a quarterback sneak with three minutes left to give the Hornets a 22-0 win. Quarterback Mike Murray makes two point conversion with aid of block thrown by junior quarterback Tommy Hunt.
