Jake Fette's Big Game Leads Del Valle over Horizon
Jake Fette's big game helped extend Del Valle's winning streak to seven on Friday. Nobody could stop Fette as he threw for 348 yards and four touchdowns while completing 75% of his passes, and also rushed for 55 yards and a touchdown.
Unfortunately for Horizon, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Fette. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Fette saw the Scorpions), he threw for 337 yards and four touchdowns while completing 73.9% of his passes, and also punched in two touchdowns on the ground.

Underclassman Alex Robles Major Player in Hanks Victory
While Friday's win was certainly a team effort, someone pulling more than their own weight was underclassman Alex Robles. He did his part (and then some), picking up 216 receiving yards and two touchdowns for the 'W'. He was no stranger to the big play, lighting up the secondary with a catch that went for 60 yards.
Hanks's victory was their ninth straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 5-2. Robles will have a chance to log another big game when he takes on Canutillo on Friday.

Marcus Wilson's Rushing Yards a New Career-High
On Friday, Andress got the W thanks in part to Marcus Wilson playing the best football he has all season. Wilson rushed for 170 yards and a touchdown while picking up 10.0 yards per carry, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He showed off some serious burst, cutting through the defense on one rush that went for 50 yards.
The win was the third in a row for Andress, bringing their record for this year to 4-3. Wilson and Andress will head out to take on Del Valle at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
