Ashton Frye and Co. Win Eighth in a Row

Mildred picked up their eighth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Ashton Frye. Frye did his part (and then some), rushing for 104 yards, while also throwing for 40 yards and a touchdown for the 'W'. He didn't just play on offense: he also made nine total tackles and defended a pass.

Mildred pushed their record up to 8-0 with the win, which was their fifth straight on the road. Frye and Mildred will welcome Carlisle at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Mildred Wins Eighth-Straight Thanks to Justin Ovalle

Justin Ovalle was instrumental in extending Mildred's winning streak to eight on Friday. Kerens had no answer to Ovalle as he rushed for ten yards and a touchdown, and also caught a touchdown.

This season, Ovalle has caught 3 touchdowns while averaging 17.2 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 0.75 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 6.88 rushing yards.
