Friday night's football game between Hillcrest and Tuscaloosa County had a little bit of everything. In the end, the Patriots won their seventh straight game over the Wildcats.
Both teams started quickly, exchanging opening possession touchdowns. Hillcrest with a 56-yard touchdown pass from Ethan Crawford to J'Quon Sturdivant and Homewood with a Sam Carr 8-yard run. However Hillcrest's ability for explosive plays ultimately propelled them ahead of the home side and allowed them to cruise to a 49-19 victory.
