Jaxon Schad Delivers Electric Performance Vs Hays
Jaxon Schad was instrumental in extending Weiss's winning streak to four on Friday. Nobody could stop Schad as he threw for 229 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 10.9 yards per attempt.
Schad will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant performance when he faces off against Lockhart on Friday. Schad will face off against Kadon Moebes on Friday, the Lions' star quarterback. With so much talent on the field, fans are surely in for an exciting game. The only thing left to see is who brings home the W.
