Wray Wins Sixth-Straight Thanks to Samuel Meisner
Wray picked up their sixth consecutive win on Saturday thanks in part to Samuel Meisner. Meisner was unstoppable, making ten total tackles (1.5 for loss).

Gamescore: 37.77
Lousberg Posts Huge Game in 27-6 Victory
Wiggins found a leader in Jayson Lousberg as the team took down Yuma on Friday. Lousberg did his part (and then some), rushing for 139 yards and two touchdowns for the 'W'.
Yuma had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Lousberg it was a similar story. Lousberg rushed for 180 yards and two touchdowns the last time he and the Outlaws duked it out back in September of 2023.
