Big Game from Misek As Donahue Catholic Won 49-14
Keeping Berg company is Luke Misek, a fellow Donahue Catholic player. He rushed for 185 yards and two touchdowns on only eight carries. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 73-yard run.
On the year, Misek has averaged 87.2 passing yards per game.
Gamescore: 67.75
Oasis Christian's Losing Streak Is No More Thanks to CJ Goldwire
Oasis Christian's ten-game losing streak dating back to last season is now nothing but a memory thanks in part to CJ Goldwire. Goldwire was unstoppable on Friday, rushing for 64 yards and a touchdown.
Goldwire and Oasis Christian will head out to square off against Calvary Chapel Academy at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Lions had to take a loss when they last met the Eagles, but Goldwire had little to do with the loss: he rushed for 82 yards and a touchdown. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
