That's a long scoring summary

A little over a year ago, a Friday Night Football clerk burned the midnight oil typing in the Throckmorton-May six-man game. Final score, in five overtimes: Throck 102, May 100.

It was the most scoring in a six-man game and, most likely, in any Texas game. Not even a bad basketball score.

Friday night, Trent won its first game and scored 132 points in a 132-86 win over Novice. That's the record now.

Poor Katie Jones. She took the call close to midnight and typed furiously to get in for our Saturday paper. All I could do, with the phone to her left ear, was ask her to be done by Monday or Tuesday. But she came through.

I bet we'll have a hard time finding call-taker next year ...
