November 2, 2009 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

WEEK TEN PREVIEWS

Lamar (6-3, 3-2) at Martin (5-4, 3-2)
· THE SERIES: Lamar leads the series, 18-5-2, and has won five of the last seven. The Vikings have a 14-5-1 edge at Cravens Field.
· LAST WEEK: Lamar breezed past Mansfield, 63-14, while Martin was surprised by Mansfield Summit, 40-29.
· THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN: Lamar’s Ja’Terian Douglas became the first player in AISD history to score seven touchdowns in a game in the win over Mansfield. Douglas shared the previous record of six with former Lamar ace Joe Walker and ex-Arlington star Gary Porter. Douglas’ seven touchdowns give him 52 for his career, good for fourth place on the city list. He would need one touchdown to catch former Arlington star Rusty Gunn for third place, five to equal Sam Houston’s Jeff Godley for second and seven to tie Lamar’s Shawn Walters for the all-time record.
· RUSH HOUR: Douglas also moved into third place on the city’s career rushing list with his 307 yards last week. He now has 3,671 yards for his career, trailing only Sam Houston’s Jeff Godley and Lamar’s Shawn Walters.

The Colts set a school record for total offense against Bowie (for the third consecutive game) with 699 yards and became the first AISD team ever to go three consecutive games without punting.
· THE IRRESISTABLE FORCE AND THE MOVABLE OBJECT: The Colts are averaging 61 points a game over their last three contests, while Mansfield is allowing almost 60 points a game over its last three. The Tigers, who have lost eight straight, have not lost nine in a row since a 12-game slide in 1985-86.

· FINISHING STRONG: A win this week would put Summit in the playoffs for the seventh time in eight years.

· THE SERIES: Timberview leads the series, winning the only meeting, 28-25, last season at MISD Stadium.
· LAST WEEK: Timberview dropped a close 27-20 decision to Everman last week, while Legacy stopped Crowley, 28-13.
