Sebastian Dennis' Big Game Leads Calallen over Zapata
Sebastian Dennis posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Friday. He rushed for 126 yards and two touchdowns on only ten carries. He is becoming a predictor of Calallen's success: when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns the team is undefeated (and 1-2 when he doesn't).
Dennis' next game is against Hidalgo on Friday, where he'll look to repeat that solid performance. Dennis will face off against Ian Szczuroski on Friday, the Pirates' star quarterback. So who wins this QB-duel? There's only one way to know for sure.
