DALLAS, TEXAS (August 29, 2025) Friday night, Dallas South Oak Cliff faced off against Galena Park North Shore in a thrilling season opener. These two teams have a history of going deep into the state playoffs, so many fans were excited to see what would happen. After a very intense battle, North Shore fell to the Golden Bears by the score of 41-31.
After a slow start, South Oak Cliff led 7–0 after the first quarter. But things really picked up in the next three quarters. The teams poured on a combined 72 points showing this game was anything but boring.
Both teams had new starting quarterbacks to begin the season. North Shore’s QB, Kaleb Maryland, starred by passing for 302 yards and three touchdowns, plus running for 170 yards and two more scores. He almost rallied North Shore from down by 21, helping them close the gap to just four points late in the game.
South Oak Cliff leaned on their strong running game. They rushed for a massive 378 yards, averaging over 10 yards per run. Mikail Trotter (shown above) ran for 194 yards and Levon Morton added 153 more, both crossing the 100‑yard mark easily.
North Shore showed grit too. They started the season with just a handful of returning starters and many were new faces. Still, in the second half, they played much better. They even pulled within four points in the fourth quarter after trailing big earlier.
But South Oak Cliff sealed the win with a powerful 50‑yard touchdown run by Trotter right after recovering an onside kick. That play put the game out of reach and brought a 41‑31 victory for the Golden Bears.
