Darien Rogers and Co. Win Sixth in a Row

This season, Ruiz has averaged 20.8 receiving yards per game.

Ty Cogdill Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Thursday, Cypress Woods got the W thanks in part to Ty Cogdill playing the best football he has all season. Cogdill picked up 94 receiving yards and three touchdowns.
