Stepp's Top 10 Texas High School Football Games of 2019: No. 8 Tomball Memorial 73, Cypress Lakes 70

DCTF's Texas high school football Insider Matt Stepp looks back at the 10 best games he attended in 2019. Today it's the No. 8 game featuring Tomball Memorial and Cypress Lakes!

October 19, 2019

Tomball Memorial 73, Cypress Lakes 70: In maybe the wildest game of the year, Tomball Memorial outlasted Cypress Lakes in an incredible shootout that featured 143 total points, 1,303 yards of offense and 60 total first downs.

The difference in the game was Colton Marwill’s 22-yard touchdown pass to Logan Kyle, which gave Tomball Memorial a 73-70 lead with 23 seconds left in the game.

Cy Lakes had one last chance and moved the ball past midfield, but a last gasp effort fell short and TMHS earned a key district win, which helped cement its playoff appearance.

The individual stats from one are just incredible. In a losing effort, Cypress Lakes QB Sofian Massoud, who signed with Houston in December, threw for 521 yards and six touchdowns and ran for 128 yards and four touchdowns. His top target was Khaliq Abdul-Matten, who caught 10 passes for 187 yards and three touchdowns.

Tomball Memorial QB Colton Marwin threw for 428 yards and seven touchdowns, Logan Kyle caught 13 passes for 253 yards and four touchdowns, and Joseph Manjack had 104 receiving yards and three touchdowns.

Even more impressive for Tomball Memorial was the fact it rallied back from a 17-point deficit midway through the third quarter as Cy Lakes had a 42-25 lead. TMHS then scored 20 straight points to close the third quarter with a 45-42 lead before the scoring went wild in the fourth as both teams tallied 28 fourth quarter points.
