Washington leans on Walker in rout

Andre Walker II already is a standout basketball player at Washington. He’s also the son of the Houston ISD athletic director.

But at the start of Friday’s game, he wasn’t listed on the school’s football roster.

He almost certainly will be now.

The converted point guard, who coach Kelvin Chatham only recently convinced to play football, collected long touchdown passes on consecutive plays in the first half, helping propel Washington to a 46-26 win against Pasadena at Veterans Memorial Stadium — and a perfect 3-0 start heading into Class 4A District 11 Division I play.
