Another Game with at Least Six Total Tackles from Kaden Ward

Forks has been struggling recently as they've lost four of their last five contests, which put a noticeable dent in their 2-5 record this season. Ward will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant effort when he faces off against Raymond/South Bend on Friday.
