He is also a clutch playmaker, notable for a recent walk-off Hail Mary to defeat Fort Worth All Saints as well as being responsible for all 5 TDs scored in the OT victory over Colleyville Heritage.. Wide receiver Coleman Reaugh Jr. is a major deep-threat who is consistently productive in Todd Dodge’s prolific Spread Offense,, averaging a massive 135.2 receiving yards per game. Junior running back Luke Gahan leads the rushing attack supported by Hudson Boyd, averaging 114.5 yards per game with 17 total touchdowns. Lovejoy’s offensive line excels in physical run blocks, recording 89 pancake blocks on the year. Argyle Offense High-profile transfer from Walnut Grove, Hayes Hackney, has seamlessly mastered the Eagles' spread scheme. He enters the matchup with an incredibly efficient 31 touchdowns on the season, already proving himself with a marquee win over Highland Park. Four-star Texas Tech commit Julian Caldwell is putting up historic numbers at wide receiver. After breaking Argyle’s single-season record with 1,737 yards last year, Caldwell is tracking nearly 184 yards per game this fall. The Eagles balance their vertical game with back Logan Rexroat to keep the RPO dynamic shifting smoothly. Defensive & Style Matchup Lovejoy's Pressure System generates a higher pass rush, averaging 2.2 sacks per game compared to Argyle's 1.0. Senior linebacker Dallas Preston anchors the middle, averaging 10 tackles a game along with sack leader and captain, Jackson Monda. Argyle features a high-volume tackling unit averaging 92 tackles per game. Analysts lean toward Argyle's defense being slightly more complete in terms of stopping balanced chunk plays and keeping opposing skill players in front of them. The only question mark is the defense is extremely young. Argyle leads the recent series history 2-0, including a commanding 56-0 bi-district playoff shutout against Lovejoy late last season. Watching that game still haunts me to this day, however, this Leopard program has shown resilience and short memory syndrome and we hope that it allows them to overcome the talent and coaching of this Argyle Eagle squad.
