Colts stomp Vikings 59-15 to open season



GARLAND, Texas- B.C. Forbes once said, "History has demonstrated that the most notable winners usually encountered heartbreaking obstacles before they triumphed. They won because they refused to become discouraged by their defeats." The Jackson MST Vikings will be reflecting on these words as the look for clues to answer their horrific season opening loss 59-15 to the Sam Houston Colts.










The capacity crowd of mostly Colts fans were treated to a dominating performance that saw the Colts push ahead early and never look back as they took a commanding 30 point half-time lead before putting away the Vikings in the second half. Jackson point guard Reggie Lockhart (#2) who lead the team with eight points on 50 percent shooting from 3pt range said, "Man, I don't know we had some mishaps, but with more communication and if we work as a team and do better on defense we should have a better result next time."




















Going back to the drawing board and starting fresh will be the best remedy for the young Vikings. Head coach Cummings told his team after the game, "We have a lot of work to do, we had pre-game jitters but be ready to practice tomorrow."
