Jeremiah Duhu Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Friday, Beaumont got the W thanks in part to Jeremiah Duhu playing the best football he has all season. Duhu threw for 315 yards and three touchdowns while completing 72.7% of his passes, and also rushed for 54 yards and a touchdown on only seven carries.
The victory (which was Beaumont's third in a row) raised their record to 6-1. Duhu and Beaumont will be playing at home against Citrus Valley at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Cajon Gets a Boost from Powell in 47-0 Win
Cajon found a leader in Evan Powell as the team took down Redlands East Valley on Thursday. Powell was dynamite, throwing for 288 yards and five touchdowns on only 19 passes.
Redlands East Valley's probably not too fond of Powell given he always seems to get the better of them. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Powell saw the Wildcats), he threw for 224 yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 79 yards and a touchdown on only seven carries.
