Jesuit Dallas sparked a second quarter rally to cut into an early Yellow Jacket lead, but an unrelenting Rockwall offense held home field and handed Jesuit its first loss of the season on Friday at Wilkerson-Sanders Stadium. The Rangers would fall to the state-ranked No. 13 Yellow Jackets, 75-28, moving to 1-1 on the season after scoring their first season-opening win since 2015. 

Senior Gage Roy hit a personal milestone, eclipsing 3,000 career passing yards with 295 on the night, completing 21 passes and throwing a pair of touchdowns. Senior Hunter Krepp additionally hit a milestone, catching seven passes for 156 yards to pass the career 1,000-yard receiving mark. Krepp, senior Robert Fitzgerald and sophomore Cooper Cutler each caught touchdowns, the last of which was thrown by junior Charlie Schmidt for his first career touchdown pass. 

The Rangers were led defensively by senior Walker Houdek, who racked up eight tackles. Fitzgerald, senior Brady Kinzer and senior David Long recorded seven tackles apiece while seniors Charlie Freeman, Austin Graham, Landon Usry and junior Jameson Kemp picked up five tackles apiece, with Kemp adding a half tackle for loss. Additional tackles for loss were recorded by seniors Ryan Allred, Jack Pott and sophomore Chris Simington. Sophomore Logan Thompson tacked on two pass breakups to go along with four tackles.

Jesuit will return to Postell Stadium next Friday, when the Rangers will welcome out-of-state opponent Choctaw from Oklahoma. The Yellow Jackets, ranked seventh in Oklahoma by MaxPreps, are 2-0 on the season, opening the year with a 66-0 win over Beacon Hill before upending Springdale, 63-6 on Sept. 3. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. on Sept. 10 at Postell Stadium.
