Ridge Point Narrowly Escapes With Win Against Pearland Dawson

Unbeaten Fort Bend Ridge Point survived a scare from Pearland Dawson in a first-round 6A-D1 thriller. Aiden Akins opened the scoring before Brody Bartee connected with DJ Darling to stake Ridge Point to a 14-0 advantage that appeared commanding.

Dawson rallied behind Josiah McFarland and Luke Brown, closing to 21-16 with momentum shifting late. A last-second defensive stand preserved Ridge Point's undefeated record and set up a major second-round showdown against North Shore.
