A longtime local attorney practicing journalism on the side, Ralph covers the football beat for his hometown Johnson County Trojans each fall. The Wrightsville native, co-founder of the Johnson Journal and owner of Dublin’s Jackson Law Firm, has contributed to The Courier Herald for years as a sports stringer and movie critic.
Two games, 117 points scored. The Trojans bookended the workweek with twin wins, defeating the Warriors Monday night and the Cobras Friday to improve to 7-0.
The final score looked familiar, but the way the Trojans got there did not. After trailing twice early, they settled in and outscored the Panthers 48-6 in the last 32 minutes on the way to another big win.
Jeremiah Scott supplied most of the offense again as the Trojan defense forced four turnovers to keep the Screamin' Devils silent in Thursday night's home opener.
Senior night meant another one-sided win like the Trojans' seniors have enjoyed all year. They improved to 9-0 on the season in Friday's tune-up for the region championship game this week.
