Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Andrean). They blew past the Highland Trojans 52-13 on Friday. Given the Fighting 59ers' advantage in MaxPreps' Indiana football rankings (they are ranked 80th, while the Trojans are ranked 212th) , the win wasn't entirely unexpected.

A big part of Andrean's victory came down to the chemistry between Brady Elish and his top target Dylan Gore. Elish rushed for 122 yards and a pair of touchdowns on only seven carries while Gore threw for 202 yards and three TDs while completing 88.9% of his passes. The dominant performance also gave Elish a new career-high in rushing touchdowns (two). Brady Stovall was another key player, rushing for 69 yards and one score on only nine carries.

Wins are hard to come by when you can't run the rock, something Andrean proved: they limited Highland to a paltry 0.1 yards per carry. The team can thank Christian Gavin for the heroic effort on defense: he. Andrean's run defense has been on the up-and-up: they allowed 4.53 yards per carry earlier this season, but they've only allowed 6.53 on average over their last five games.

The win was the fifth in a row for Andrean, bringing their record up to 5-1. Those victories came thanks in part to their defensive effort, having only surrendered 7.0 points on average over those games. As for Highland, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 2-4.

Both teams will have to hit the road in their upcoming matchups. Andrean will venture away from home to face off against Angola at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. As for Highland, they will head out to square off against Munster at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
