WEST ORANGE, Texas — In what would be the only scrimmage for both West Orange-Stark and Vidor, the Mustangs took advantage of a couple of Pirate mistakes to walk away with a 14-0 decision at Dan R. Hooks Stadium Thursday night.
On West Orange-Stark's first play from scrimmage, some confusion on Vidor's side led to a huge gain inside the Pirates ten yard line. Two players later the Mustangs would hit pay dirt.
It remained that way until the West Orange-Stark defense came up with a scoop and score with under twenty seconds left on the clock before halftime.
The Mustangs open the season ranked third in 4A-Division II, while Vidor is tabbed as the 24th ranked team in 4A-Division I.
West Orange-Stark travels to Madisonville next Friday for a showdown with the top-ranked team in 4A-Division I, Waco La Vega.
Vidor will also be tested next week at Silsbee. The Tigers are coming off back-to-back State Semifinal appearances and are ranked eighth in 4A-DII.
