Collin Peters Turns in Season-Best Effort
Sadly, Collin Peters posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Athens Drive over Sanderson on Friday. Peters rushed for 120 yards and a touchdown on only 13 carries, and also threw for 90 yards and a touchdown.
Athens Drive is on a four-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 2-5. Peters will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant effort when he faces off against Broughton on Friday.

Goldston Made His Presence Known in Leesville Road's 56-14 Victory
Deiondre Goldston's big game helped extend Leesville Road's winning streak to seven on Friday. Goldston was unstoppable, throwing for 269 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 12.2 yards per attempt. He is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in the last three games he's played dating back to last season.
Goldston must have Broughton's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Goldston saw the Capitals), he threw for 220 yards and three touchdowns.
Gamescore: 28.53
