FOOTBALL: Fort Davis 38, Garden City 34
FORT DAVIS Freshman receiver Vincent Perez scored on a 30-yard touchdown pass from Steve Enriquez with 42 seconds to play, lifting Fort Davis to a 38-34 upset of two-time defending state champion Garden City in the District 7-1A Division I Six-Man opener for both teams.
Fort Davis (6-1 overall, 1-0 district) followed up the late touchdown by stopping Garden City (4-4, 0-1) on downs to preserve the upset at Bart Coan Field.
Enriquez completed 16 of 22 passes for 242 yards and three touchdowns to pace the Indians while also rushing for 70 yards and two touchdowns.
