SEASON ENDS ON 42-30 LOSS
The game started off well for the Bronchos as they forced a fumble on the Eagles’ second play of the game, taking possession at the Abilene High 34-yard line.  David Camacho scampered 32 yards to the 7 and then Malcolm Hunt powered into the end zone on the next play. A bad snap on the extra point ended as a two-point conversion for an 8-0 lead.  The Bronchos were led by quarterback Camacho, who rushed for 123 yards on 26 carries and passed for 173 yards and three touchdowns on the night.

SHORT END OF 28-14 LOSS
Lubbock Coronado scored 21 third quarter points to hand Odessa High its third straight loss at Lowery Field.  David Camacho opened the scoring with a 22-yard run in the first quarter, then Coronado tied the game on a 42-yard pass from Colling Flathers to Steven Snyder to knot the score at 7-7 at the half.  The Mustangs exploded in the second half.  Flathers caught a touchdown pass and ran for another, while Kholbye Walker returned a blocked punt 12 yards for a touchdown to make the score 28-14.

  

FIRST BLOOD DOESN'T LAST IN 17-7 DEFEAT
The Bronchos came out and scored on their opening possession, after David Camacho took a 6-yard option to paydirt.  Unfortunately for Odessa High, that would be the only points they would put on the scoreboard.  Amarillo Tascosa running back Anthony Scott found the end zone on a short run to tie the score early in the second quarter.  Jason Cunningham's 37-yard field goal would put the Rebels up 10-7 at the half.  Scott busted loose on a 26-yard touchdown run late in the third quarter to extend the Tascosa lead to 17-7.  Scott would finish the game with 118 yards on 24 carries for the Rebels.  Camacho led the Bronchos with 47 yards rushing and 60 yards through the air.

  
FRENSHIP CONTROLS SECOND HALF IN 38-15 LOSS
It was a game of halves.  In the first quarter, David Camacho put the Bronchos on the board on a 10-yard touchdown run.  The Tigers answered back with a 35-yd TD pass to tie the score at 8-8.  Camacho hit Daniel Rivas on a 45-yard strike to reclaim the lead, but Frenship duplicated their first score on another 35-yard pass to send the teams to the locker rooms tied 15-15.  In the second half, the Tigers scored a safety, two touchdown passes from 33 and 30 yards, and hammered in the final nail on a 3-yd TD run in the fourth quarter.

SOCCER SEASON SET TO ROLL
The Bronchos last season became the first District 3-5A boys team to qualify for the Region I-5A Tournament in three consecutive seasons, though they also were the first 3-5A boys team to earn consecutive regional trips the season before. It also doesn’t hurt that the Bronchos return goalkeeper Alonso Jimenez, the reigning 3-5A MVP, for his senior season. Jimenez allowed just nine goals in 12 district games as a junior.  Sophomore sweeper Steve Wiscombe was solid as a freshman starter and senior David Torres is back to start at stopper, but both players are nursing injuries. Uli Guillen, a sophomore, was 3-5A’s Newcomer of the Year last season and is expected to make big impacts both in the midfield and at forward, while Josh Hernandez also could see time at both positions.
  
BASKETBALL CONTINUES DISTRICT GAMES
Sophomore forward Travis Nickens showed his full range, scoring 19 points to bring OHS within one point of upsetting Midland High and turning District 3-5A upside down. Odessa High’s fourth-quarter rally came up short, though, and Midland High escaped with a 64-63 win over the Bronchos (2-1) at the OHS Fieldhouse.  Midland High took a 35-28 lead into the half. Teddy Chambers scored 17 of his 19 points in the first half.  After Justin Najera’s 3-pointer cut the deficit to 46-41 with 2:34 left in the third.  Nickens scored a career-high 19 points to lead four Odessa High starters in double figures. Uranga scored 15 points, while Guyton and Brent Sullivan had 12 points each.
  
TURNOVERS COST OHS PLAYOFFS
It's hard to win a game when the ball is on the turf.  Nowhere was that more evident than in the OHS - Midland High game.  The Bronchos could have handily beat Midland High with the absence of five fumbles, as the Bronchos went in at the half behind 10-9 as a result.  In the second half, the Bulldogs put two more scores on the board for the 24-9 Odessa High loss.  The loss eliminated OHS from the playoffs, but the Bronchos still finished with a 7-3 record for the year.

BRONCHOS SAY NO-MO-MOJO
Odessa High remains alive in the 3-5A playoff race after claiming a 14-12 victory over Permian.  Toby Golden scored both touchdowns - one from seven yards in the first quarter and the other from five yards in the third quarter.  For the first time since 1964, the Bronchos hold the PHS-OHS winning streak.

REBELS HAND BRONCHOS SECOND LOSS
The Broncho defense got a fair dose of McKee in the 35-7 loss in Ratliff Stadium.  McKee scored four touchdowns in the first half and another in the second.  The Midland Lee offense did most of their damage early, taking a 28-7 halftime lead.  McKee racked up 177 rushing yards on 28 carries, while OHS's Toby Golden led the Bronchos with 110 yards on 14 rushing attempts.  A bright spot for OHS came on a 43-yard touchdown pass from Mason Munguia to Byron Monahan in the second quarter.  Munguia threw for 109 yards.

  

BRONCS BLAST COUGARS, 42-14
The formula of two quarters close and two quarters completely dominate resulted in a successful road trip to Abilene for the Bronchos.  Abilene Cooper was inept in the second half, which OHS took advantage in the 42-14 hammering. 
Toby Golden was the leading ball carrier, rushing nine times for 106 yards and two touchdowns, and Kevin Moore carried the ball eight times for 47 yards and two scores.  Mason Munguia added 61 yards on the ground and another 82 yards through the air.

BRONCHOS FALL TO EAGLES, 28-7
Trailing 7-0 at the half, the Broncho defense watched the Eagles add 21 points in the second half of the 28-7 loss in Shotwell Stadium.  Abilene's Casey Bell did the most damage behind touchdown runs from 23 and 25 yards out.  Odessa's offense put together 146 total yards, but allowed the Eagles 403 yards on the night.  Toby Golden had 29 yards rushing on six carries.  Mason Munguia had 16 yards rushing and 86 passing, including scoring the lone OHS touchdown.

  

HEADING INTO DISTRICT OHS IS 5-0
It was the first time since 1976 that the Bronchos could win the first five games of the season.  Kevin Moore made sure it happened.  Scoring on a 64 yard TD run, Moore added a 47 yard run to set up the second score in the OHS 14-3 victory over the San Angelo Central Bobcats.  Mason Munguia had 57 yards on 17 carries, and Toby Golden had 51 yards and a touchdown on eight carries.

  

RED CELEBRATES 39-26 HOMECOMING
The Bronchos improved to 4-0 and crowned a Homecoming Queen all in the same night, as OHS dominated the Lubbock Coronado Mustangs in Ratliff Stadium.  Kevin Moore led the offense, carrying the ball six times for 127 yards and two touchdowns. Toby Golden finished 15 carries for 97 yards.  Mason Munguia, Chandler Goode, and Jamel Guyton added scores, as well.  The Odessa High defense forced four turnovers - three fumble recoveries and one interception.

BRONCHO BASH AND BONFIRE
The annual get together drew young and old alike.  Principal Ron Leach was encouraged by the turnout.  "We hope this new tradition continues to grow", said Leach just prior to the lighting of the bonfire.  There were several tables setup with Broncho paraphernalia being offered by various school organizations.  Barbeque and other home cooked foods were available during the evening event.  The Bash was concluded with the bonfire, which featured team captains, cheerleaders, the dance group, and the OHS Band.

 

BRONCHOS PICK UP THIRD STRAIGHT WIN
It was a Golden opportunity for the Bronchos in their home opener against Las Cruces on Friday night.  Toby Golden scored touchdowns from 57, 11 and 19 yards out in the 37-21 OHS victory.  Odessa High caused five Bulldog turnovers including:  three interceptions (by Josh Baughman, Chandler Goode, and Matias Patino) and two fumbles (recovered by Brent Sullivan and Josh Shibler).  Kevin Moore returned a 79-yard kickoff for a touchdown and Mason Munguia added another.    Golden ended the night with 140 rushing yards on only six attempts.

 

THE BETTER HORSE ON COURSE
The Broncho Varsity and Junior Varsity proved to be the best horses against the Andrews.  On Thursday evening in Ratliff Stadium, the JV handed the Mustangs a 27-7 deficit.  The following night in Andrews, the Varsity walked away winners of a 35-19 slugfest.  Mason Munguia rushed for 137 yards and a touchdown and passed for another to Byron Monahan.  Toby Golden and Josh Shibler added scoring runs of 16 and 7 yards.  Defensively, Jamel Guyton intercepted two passes, returning one for a touchdown, and kicker Alonso Jimenez connected on a 53-yard field goal.

 

LATE THREAT DENIED IN 28-21 VICTORY
The Big Spring Steers were driving toward the tying touchdown in the waning moments of the game inside the 30-yard line with less than four minutes to go.  It was time for a stand and Odessa High’s safety Jamel Guyton found one more jump.  Forcing Big Spring into three straight incomplete passes, Odessa High was able to take over on downs and then ran out the clock for a 28-21 victory.  Toby Golden racked up 110 yards on 13 carries.  Chandler Goode had 126 yards on only three carries.  Mason Munguia finished 5-of-11 passing for 188 yards and two touchdowns.

PLAINSMEN EDGE OHS IN SCRIMMAGE
While the offense needs some more work, the defense looked solid against Lubbock Monterey.  The Plainsmen scored a late touchdown to defeat Odessa High, 7-5.  In the scrimmage, Coach Phillips unveiled the “Gun Option” offense, which gives Mason Munguia and Josh Shibler several options on every play.  It allows the quarterback to handoff to running backs Malcolm Hunt, Toby Golden, and Kevin Moore.  The second option is the throw to receivers Byron Monahan, Chandler Goode, and Jamel Guyton.  Against Monterey the offense was hot or cold, but not consistent.  The defense looked pretty salty most of the night.  VIDEO> | PHOTOS>
 
SEASON BEGINS FOR BRONCHOS
The first day of the 2005 season began on Monday, August 8.  The Broncho football team hope to brave the heat and ready for the upcoming season.  Look for Mason Munguia to throw to Jamil Guyton
quite a bit, while Toby Golden and Kevin Moore churn out yardage from the backfield.  Defensively, we expect Ricky Licon, Josh Baughman, and Shane Brady to do well with Chandler Goode and Brent Sullivan in the secondary.
 

RED-WHITE GAME ENDS IN TIE
After ending in a 28-28 tie, the OHS players wanted to go into Sudden Death, but that was squelched by head coach Scott Phillips.  Josh Shibler scored twice on options to pace the White team, while Mason Munguia orchestrated a 70-yard drive in the final 50 seconds for the Red team to tie the game with six seconds remaining.  The Bronchos came out in a four-wide set on nearly every play, moving players in motion to unbalance the defensive set.  Coach Phillips unveiled an OHS added weapon in kicker Alonso Jimenez. A goalkeeper on the boys soccer team, Jimenez put his foot into two field goals, from 47 and 49 yards.
