Teriq Drew Delivers Best Performance of Season
Teriq Drew produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Hopewell to the win on Friday. Drew rushed for 69 yards and two touchdowns on only six carries, and also threw for 53 yards and a touchdown on only five passes.
Drew and Hopewell will square off against Thomas Dale at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The matchup will pit Drew up against the Knights' star signal caller Malacai Swain. With so much talent on the field, fans are surely in for an exciting game. The only thing left to see is who brings home the W.

Matoaca Wins Eighth-Straight Thanks to Bryce Yates
Matoaca picked up their eighth consecutive win on Thursday thanks in part to Bryce Yates. Yates did his part (and then some), throwing for 291 yards and four touchdowns while completing 81.3% of his passes for the 'W'.
If history really does repeat itself, Yates might just drop another big game when he faces off against Prince George on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Yates saw the Royals), he picked up 100 receiving yards and three touchdowns.

Hunt Made His Presence Known in Hopewell's 56-0 Win
The second Hopewell player making an appearance here is Cam Hunt, and for good reason. He rushed for 90 yards and two touchdowns on only 11 carries. Hopewell is 2-1 when Hunt posts two or more rushing touchdowns, but 2-3 otherwise.
Hunt and Hopewell will face off against Thomas Dale at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Hunt will face off against Jaiden Hite, the Knights' star RB. With so much talent on the field, fans are surely in for an exciting game. The only thing left to see is who brings home the W.
