Towles knocked out at 1-yard line on final play of half. Kind of surprised Highlands didn't just kick a field goal there.

Looked like a late hit out of bounds on the last play.
And why was FS allowed to return the ball on the kickoff when the return man was 3-4 yards deep in the endzone?

Highlands D is starting to play tougher, and think they will make some nice adjustments at the half.
Highlands Offense will continue to move the ball and put points on the board.

I could see going for it if on the one or two , but I agree take the 3 points and go up 3 posessions.

I agree, I expect that HHS opens a big lead in the 3rd quarter. The "feel" makes me believe the birds are about to take flight
