  "account": "Vandegrift defeated Liberty Hill 45-14 in a matchup between two Central Texas high school football teams. Running back Evan Williamson scored Vandegrift's third touchdown of the game, a 32-yard connection from Madden Child, following a play known as the hook and ladder. Vandegrift, a 6A program, dominated Liberty Hill, a 5A Division II team, holding the Panthers to fewer than 200 yards of offense and punting just once during the game. Vandegrift coach Drew Sanders emphasized the team's focus on fixing their issues after a recent loss, and noted the Vipers' impressive performance with 434 yards combined from running backs Gavin Koester and Preston James. Williamson and Koester, who had missed nearly all of 2025 with injuries, expressed their excitement and gratitude for returning to the field and playing well.",
