Cottonwood Wins Eighth-Straight Thanks to Braylon Morris
Braylon Morris's big game helped extend Cottonwood's winning streak to eight on Friday. Morris did his part (and then some), throwing for 237 yards and three touchdowns on only 16 passes, while also rushing for 70 yards and a touchdown for the 'W'. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up a sack and making three total tackles.
Cottonwood pushed their record up to 8-0 with the win, which was their fifth straight at home. Morris and Cottonwood will venture away from home to square off against Abbeville at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

A Season-Best Performance from Tyler Sharp Leads Providence Christian over Abbeville
On Friday, Providence Christian got the W thanks in part to Tyler Sharp playing the best football he has all season. Sharp rushed for 116 yards and two touchdowns on only ten carries, and also picked up 49 receiving yards and two touchdowns, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest rush was for an impressive 50 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
The win was the fourth in a row for Providence Christian, bringing their record for this year to 6-1. Sharp and Providence Christian will square off against Long on Friday.

King Campbell's Big Game Leads Cottonwood over Ariton
King Campbell's big game helped extend Cottonwood's winning streak to eight on Friday. Ariton had no answer to Campbell as he rushed for 200 yards and two touchdowns on only 11 carries. Campbell is on a roll when it comes to rushing touchdowns, as he's now punched in two or more in the last six games he's played dating back to last season.
On the season, Campbell has averaged 16 receiving yards per game.

Providence Christian Gets a Boost from Pittman in 42-26 Win

This year, Pittman has thrown 11 touchdowns (and and only 2 picks) while averaging 112.7 passing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after seven games last season, he had three passing touchdowns.
