Big Game from Johnson As Calera Won 35-14

Calera's win ended an eight-game drought on the road dating back to last season and puts them at 2-4. Johnson and Calera will square off against Chilton County at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Brock Bradley and Co. Win 11th in a Row
Spain Park picked up their 11th consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Brock Bradley. Pelham had no answer to Bradley as he threw for 346 yards and three touchdowns while completing 76.9% of his passes.
Bradley and Spain Park will be playing in front of their home fans against Chelsea at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. The Jaguars got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Hornets, probably because Bradley had a solid game then too: he threw for 152 yards and two touchdowns on only 13 passes. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
