Matthew Moret Turns in Season-Best Performance
Matthew Moret produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Mount Vernon to the win on Thursday. Moret picked up 131 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 81 yards and a touchdown.
Moret must have Falls Church's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. When Moret last faced the Jaguars back in October of 2023, he picked up 97 receiving yards and three touchdowns.

Thomas Jefferson Science & Technology was sadly handed a loss on Thursday, but Andrew Haydon did his best to prevent it. Haydon was unstoppable, making four total tackles (1.0 for loss).

Abdul Bundu Makes It Two for Thomas Jefferson Science & Technology
Another Thomas Jefferson Science & Technology player making an appearance on this list is Abdul Bundu. He rushed for 121 yards and a touchdown. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 121 rushing yards dating back to last season.
For the year, Bundu has run in 5 touchdowns while averaging 114.2 rushing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after four games last season, he was only averaging 75.5 rushing yards per game.

Fuentes Made His Presence Known in Mount Vernon's 42-7 Win
The second Mount Vernon player making an appearance here is Antoni Fuentes, and for good reason. He rushed for 128 yards and a touchdown.
On the season, Fuentes has averaged 19.7 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had two rushing touchdowns. This year he is already up to six.
Gamescore: 26.18
Another Mount Vernon player making an appearance on this list is Hudson Grimsley. He threw for 189 yards and two touchdowns on only 16 passes.
Falls Church had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Grimsley it was a similar story. Grimsley threw for 149 yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 38 yards and a touchdown the last time he and the Jaguars duked it out back in October of 2023.
