    Pearland improves to 3-1 on the season and 2-0 in District 22-6A action.
    The Oilers opened up the scoring 12-play, 65-yard scoring drive that took 6:06 off the first quarter clock as Cam’ Bush scored on a 4-yard run with 5:44 left in the opening stanza for a 7-0 lead following the PAT by Zane Adler.
    Alvin was forced to punt on their first possession after three plays setting up the Oilers on their own 41.

    The Oilers continued their offensive fireworks in the second quarter with three more scores.
    With 11:12 remaining in the period, sophomore fullback Dominic Teichelman scored on a 1-yard plunge to increase the lead to 21-0.

    Adler put a cherry on top of the first half with a 44-yard field goal with :02 seconds to make the score 38-0 at intermission.
    Pearland added three more scores in the second half as Westmoreland scored his second touchdown of the game on a 9-yard keeper, defensive lineman Keegan Pugh scooped up a fumble and rambled 9-yards for another score, and RB Ryan Miller scored the final touchdown in the fourth period on a 1-yard run to post the 59-0 final score.
