Strafford Wins Sixth-Straight Thanks to Ryder Ross
Ryder Ross's big game helped extend Strafford's winning streak to six on Friday.

Kellen Lair and Co. Win Sixth in a Row
Kellen Lair was instrumental in extending Fair Grove's winning streak to six on Friday. Nobody could stop Lair as he rushed for 67 yards and a touchdown on only six carries, and also picked up 55 receiving yards. His longest reception was for an impressive 55 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per catch total.
This year, Lair has averaged 29.2 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 30.17 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 117.67 rushing yards.
