Daquan “Money” Johnson cashed in with three touchdowns for the defending 3A state champion Hurricanes.
But those championship rings did not mean a thing headed into Friday night’s contest, according to Vickery.
“I know we are ranked; that doesn’t mean nothing, We need to be ranked No. 1 at the end of the season,” he said. “This bunch is the best bunch I’ve ever seen as far as being diligent, sticking to the plan, having effort and discipline. We did all those little things tonight.”
“We made a few crazy plays in the game, but that was just a great effort by our guys. I thought it was a total domination against a good 4A team. This is the biggest win of our season so far. We take it in one game at a time. We’re going to be back at Auburn this year. You can write it down.”
The Blue Devils had one touchdown, but it was called back due to holding. ECHS isnow 3-2 on the season and will be in their house next Friday night for Homecoming.
