Noah Moss Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Thursday, St. Michael Catholic got the W thanks in part to Noah Moss playing the best football he has all season. Moss rushed for 225 yards and four touchdowns, and also picked up 70 receiving yards. The performance marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in September of 2023. He also put in work on the defensive side of the ball, picking up a sack and making a tackle.
St. Michael Catholic's victory was their fourth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 6-1. Moss' next match is against Pensacola on Friday, where he'll look to repeat that solid effort.

Another Game with at Least Two Rushing Touchdowns from Ezavier Crowell
On Thursday, Jackson got the W thanks in part to Ezavier Crowell playing the best football he has all season. Crowell wasn't messing around, rushing for 191 yards and three touchdowns on only eight carries. The match was his third straight with two or more rushing touchdowns dating back to last season. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 80-yard run.
Orange Beach had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Crowell it was a similar story. Crowell rushed for 122 yards and a touchdown on only 11 carries the last time he and the Makos duked it out back in September of 2023.

Landon Duckworth's Big Game Leads Jackson over Orange Beach
Jackson picked up their seventh consecutive win on Thursday thanks in part to Landon Duckworth. Duckworth was unstoppable, rushing for 87 yards and a touchdown, while also throwing for 189 yards and a touchdown while completing 72.7% of his passes. That's the most rushing yards he has posted since back in September of 2023.
Duckworth must have Orange Beach's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Duckworth saw the Makos), he threw for 220 yards and four touchdowns on only 18 passes, and also rushed for 92 yards and a touchdown.
