Jashawn Shaw Turns in Season-Best Effort
On Thursday, Berry got the W thanks in part to JaShawn Shaw playing the best football he has all season. Shaw wasn't messing around, picking up two sacks and making 11 total tackles (7.0 for loss). The game was his third straight with six or more total tackles.
With the victory, Berry broke their five-game losing streak and moved their record to 2-5. A feisty cat fight will be fought when Cardinals takes on Garinger at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Berry's Losing Streak Is No More Thanks to Daylyn Taylor

Olympic had to settle for second on Thursday, but De'Angelo Hall sure wasn't going down easily. Palisades had no answer to Hall as he picked up 56 receiving yards, and also punched in a rushing score. Hall also put in work on the defensive side of the ball, forcing a fumble and making a tackle.
For the year, Hall has averaged 53.7 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 1.43 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 4.14 rushing yards.
