George County Gets a Boost from Knight in 48-13 Win
Deuce Knight was a major factor in George County's victory over Long Beach on Friday. Long Beach had no answer to Knight as he threw for 219 yards and four touchdowns while completing 76.9% of his passes, and also punched in a rushing score.
Long Beach's probably not too fond of Knight given he always seems to get the better of them. Knight threw for 134 yards and three touchdowns while completing 77.8% of his passes, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground the last time he and the Bearcats duked it out back in October of 2023.
