Southwest extended their winning streak to four on Friday, bumping them up to 4-0. They enjoyed a cozy 45-30 victory over the Wallace Wildcats. This was payback for the Roughriders, who suffered a 67-45 loss the last time these two teams met.

Houston Billeter continued his habit of posting crazy stat lines, rushing for 83 yards and a pair of TDs on only ten carries, while also throwing for 228 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 10.9 yards per attempt.

Southwest didn't let much get past them through the air: they limited Wallace to a completion percentage of just 50%. The team can thank Jacob Barber for the heroic effort on defense: he. Southwest hasn't an opponent to post a completion percentage of 0.43 or higher in five consecutive matchups dating back to last season.

Having lost for the first time this season, Wallace fell to 3-1. The loss was their first of the season.

Wallace lost despite a true team effort on offense. The best among them was Ashtin Johns, who rushed for 105 yards and two scores. He was no stranger to the big play, taking off on a dash that went for 58 yards. The team also got some help courtesy of Brayden Gardner, who picked up 74 receiving yards and a pair of touchdowns.

We've got plenty of inter-district action coming up soon. Southwest is set to face off against their familiar foe Medicine Valley at 3:00 p.m. on Friday. Meanwhile, Wallace will square off against rival Paxton at 6:00 p.m. on Friday.
