Alvin Henderson Goes Supernova in Elba Win
Alvin Henderson continued his hot streak on Friday by dropping his 23rd-straight game (dating back to last season) with at least two rushing touchdowns. He rushed for 243 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 14.3 yards per carry. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 94-yard run.
If history really does repeat itself, Henderson might just drop another big game when he faces off against Florala on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Henderson saw the Wildcats), he rushed for 355 yards and seven touchdowns while picking up 17.8 yards per carry.

Jackson Made His Presence Known in Mckenzie's 52-44 Victory
Quay Jackson's big game helped extend McKenzie's winning streak to five on Friday.

Jackson didn't just play on offense: he also made four total tackles and defended three passes in addition to snagging two interceptions.
McKenzie's victory was their third straight at home, which pushed their record up to 8-1. Jackson and McKenzie will head out to challenge Red Level at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Florala is on a roll lately: they've won five of their last six contests, which provided a nice bump to their 7-2 record this season. A feisty cat fight will be fought when Wildcats takes on Elba at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Cayden Adkins Delivers Electric Effort Vs Georgiana
Cayden Adkins's big game helped extend Elba's winning streak to six on Friday. Adkins turned in nothing short of a gem, picking up a sack and making 14 total tackles. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up a sack and making 14 total tackles.
Georgiana had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Adkins it was a similar story. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Adkins saw the Panthers), he made ten total tackles (2.0 for loss).
