Trent Seaborn Delivers Best Performance of Season
Thompson was led to victory by Trent Seaborn, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Seaborn threw for 370 yards and five touchdowns while completing 71.9% of his passes, good enough to also set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
Thompson's win bumped their record up to 7-3. Seaborn and Thompson will have some time to savor their victory since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Daphne at 7:00 p.m. on November 8th.

Will O'dell Goes Supernova in Oak Mountain Loss
While Oak Mountain might've come up empty on Friday, Will O'Dell wasn't going down without a fight. Nobody could stop O'Dell as he threw for 345 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 13.8 yards per attempt, and also rushed for 107 yards and two touchdowns on only 14 carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 53 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
O'Dell and Oak Mountain will face off against Chelsea at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The last time O'Dell took on the Hornets, he rushed for 88 yards on only nine carries, and also threw for 154 yards and a touchdown. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

Bryson Kimbrough's Rushing Yards a New Career-High
Hillcrest was led to victory by Bryson Kimbrough, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Kimbrough rushed for 107 yards and three touchdowns on only 14 carries, and also threw for 225 yards while completing 78.6% of his passes, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He has become a key player for Hillcrest: the team is 4-1 when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns, but 2-3 otherwise.
This season, Kimbrough has averaged 164.5 passing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after ten games last season, he was only averaging 18 passing yards per game.

Richey Came Up Big in Hillcrest's 50-36 Win
Keeping Kimbrough company is Christian Richey, a fellow Hillcrest player. He rushed for 177 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 8.0 yards per carry. He is becoming a predictor of Hillcrest's success: when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns the team is undefeated (and 1-4 when he doesn't).
On the year, Richey has run in 8 touchdowns while averaging 115.4 rushing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after ten games last season, he was only averaging 40.6 rushing yards per game.
