The Beckman Patriots and the Sunny Hills Lancers are set to duel on Friday. The teams are on pretty different trajectories at the moment (Beckman has six straight wins, Sunny Hills has nine straight defeats), but none of that matters once you're on the field.

Last Friday, everything came up roses for Beckman on the road against Fullerton as the squad secured a 41-7 victory. The result was nothing new for the Patriots, who have now won three contests by 31 points or more so far this season.

Beckman's success was the result of a balanced attack that saw several players step up, but Makhi Czaykowski led the charge by rushing for 81 yards and two touchdowns on only seven carries. The team also got some help courtesy of Noah Nam, who threw for 229 yards and two touchdowns while completing 77.3% of his passes.

Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, Beckman was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 212 rushing yards. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now rushed for at least 171 rushing yards in four consecutive games.
