Athens Wins Ninth-Straight Thanks to Seth Hart
Seth Hart was instrumental in extending Athens's winning streak to nine on Friday.

Hart is crushing it when it comes to total tackles: he's made at least six every time he's taken the field this season.

Alex Pero Delivers Electric Performance Vs River Valley
Athens picked up their ninth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Alex Pero. Pero turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 117 yards and a touchdown on only five carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 60 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
Pero must have River Valley's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Pero rushed for 137 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 8.6 yards per carry the last time he and the Raiders duked it out back in October of 2023.
