Denison's Season Finale

The 2009 football season came to an end for the
Denison Yellow Jackets this afternoon as they lost
to Aledo 40-28 in a Class AAAA semi-final game at
Collins Stadium in Denton.
The running of Jonathon Gray was too much for
Denison, as the sophomore tailback ran for 160 yards
and scored four touchdowns. Denison actually led
21-7 entering the second quarter, but then were
held scoreless as Aledo reeled off 28 un-answered
points. Denison had two touchdowns called back due
to penalties, but it was the defense that had no answer
for the Bearcats high octane offense.
Yellow Jacket running back D.J. Jones had 114 yards
rushing and scored two touchdowns. He finishes his
high school career as the all-time leading rusher with
2298 yards and 30 touchdowns in the 2009 season.
Denison ends the season with 13 wins and two losses,
while Aledo will move into the State Championship game
next week against Brenham. That game to be played at
Royal Stadium on the campus of the University of Texas
at Austin.
