Oswaldo Morales Turns in Season-Best Performance
Tomball was led to victory by Oswaldo Morales, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Saturday.

That high mark didn't come from nowhere: he has now rushed for 133 or more in the last five games he's played dating back to last season.

Faldyn Made His Presence Known in Tomball's 48-43 Victory

He threw for 295 yards and two touchdowns while completing 75.9% of his passes, and also rushed for 100 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 65 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
On the season, Faldyn has thrown 6 touchdowns while averaging 196.6 passing yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 2.2 passing yards per game.

Jaelon Dixon Goes Supernova in Klein Cain Victory
Klein Cain found a leader in Jaelon Dixon as the squad took down Magnolia on Friday. Dixon did his part (and then some), rushing for 130 yards and a touchdown on only 15 carries for the 'W'. His longest rush was for an impressive 54 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
The win made it two in a row for Klein Cain and bumps their season record up to 5-1. Dixon and Klein Cain will have some time to savor their victory since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Klein Forest at 7:00 p.m. on October 18th.
