Quarterback Aidan Crawford hooked up with Dominic Oliver for three touchdowns Friday night for the Legacy football team in a 29-22 victory over Sierra Vista.

Legacy trailed 14-0 after the first quarter, but scored 29 unanswered points in grabbing a win in the Class 5A, Division II opener.

“We have a habit of starting slow, and they came out and got us on a couple of big plays,” coach Zach Monticelli said.

Zaione Henderson had a rushing touchdown for the Longhorns.
