D'kari Mucker and Co. Win Sixth in a Row
Lawrenceburg picked up their sixth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to D'Kari Mucker. Mucker rushed for 68 yards and a touchdown on only five carries. The performance marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in September of 2023. We marked that as the best he's had all season, even better than his effort last Friday.
Lawrenceburg pushed their record up to 6-1 with the win, which was their fifth straight at home dating back to last season. Mucker will have a chance to log another big game when he takes on Connersville on Friday.
