Nationally-ranked Summer Creek (Texas) scores 81 points in blowout victory
As the 2024 high school football regular season enters the home stretch, scoreboards are beginning to look lopsided across the state of Texas.
Plenty of the Lone Star State’s top programs cruised to easy victories on Friday night, but Humble Summer Creek High’s latest performance takes the cake, as it collected an 81-6 victory over Goose Creek Memorial.
The Bulldogs are now 6-1 this season and are averaging 55.4 points per game. They’ve been stellar on the defensive side of the ball, too.
Summer Creek didn’t allow a single point in its first four games of the season, outscoring its opponents 215-0. They then ran into a buzzsaw in Atascocita, losing 42-39, but have since rebounded with another pair of dominant wins.
Entering this week, Summer Creek checked in as the No. 22 team in the nation and No. 8 team in Texas, according to the On3 Massey Ratings. Its offense ranks No. 8 in the state while its defense checks in at No. 4.
