Leesville Road Gets a Boost from Goldston in 56-14 Win
Deiondre Goldston's big game helped extend Leesville Road's winning streak to seven on Friday. Goldston was dynamite, throwing for 269 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 12.2 yards per attempt.

Goldston must have Broughton's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. When Goldston last faced the Capitals back in October of 2023, he threw for 220 yards and three touchdowns.
