Discovery Canyon Wins Fourth-Straight Thanks to Devon Baker
Devon Baker's big game helped extend Discovery Canyon's winning streak to four on Saturday. Baker was unstoppable, picking up a sack and making four total tackles. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up a sack and making four total tackles.
Discovery Canyon's win was their third straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 5-2. Baker and Discovery Canyon are on the road again on Friday to play Lewis-Palmer at 7:00 p.m.

Big Game from Herrera As Pueblo South Won 47-0
Another Pueblo South player making an appearance on this list is Caeden Herrera. He threw for 159 yards and four touchdowns while completing 88.2% of his passes.
Pueblo Centennial's probably not too fond of Herrera given he always seems to get the better of them. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Herrera saw the Bulldogs), he threw for 76 yards and four touchdowns while completing 75% of his passes, and also rushed for 30 yards.

Hayden Jones Makes It Two for Discovery Canyon
The second Discovery Canyon player making an appearance here is Hayden Jones, and for good reason. He threw for 132 yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 61 yards and a touchdown.
For the season, Jones has thrown 10 touchdowns while averaging 79.7 passing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after seven games last season, he had five passing touchdowns.
