Grant Guidry Dazzles in Westview Victory
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Friday Grant Guidry stepped things up a notch to give Westview the 'W'. Guidry turned in nothing short of a gem, throwing for 302 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 12.6 yards per attempt.
Westview is on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five contests, which provided a nice bump to their 4-3 record this season. They and Cibola are set to duel on Friday.

Charlie Levinus Turns in Season-Best Performance

The win was the third in a row for Paradise Valley, bringing their record for this year to 4-3. Levinus and Paradise Valley will head out to challenge Kellis at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Ronald Coty Iii Delivers Electric Effort Vs West Point
The second Kellis player making an appearance here is Ronald Coty Iii, and for good reason. He threw for 119 yards and four touchdowns, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground.
If history really does repeat itself, Coty Iii might just drop another big game when he faces off against Paradise Valley on Thursday. Coty Iii rushed for 83 yards and three touchdowns, and also threw for 35 yards and a touchdown the last time he and the Trojans duked it out back in October of 2023.
