A Season-Best Effort from PJ Faul Leads Haskell over Chouteau-Mazie
On Friday, Haskell got the W thanks in part to PJ Faul playing the best football he has all season. Faul rushed for 194 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 9.2 yards per carry, and also threw for 175 yards and four touchdowns. He was no stranger to the big play, taking off on a dash that went for 55 yards.
Haskell's win ended an eight-game drought at home dating back to last season and bumped them up to 2-4. Faul and Haskell will challenge Hulbert at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday.

Jaseir Posey Crosses Big Stat Threshold
While Thursday's victory was certainly a team effort, someone pulling more than their own weight was underclassman Jaseir Posey. He was excellent on Thursday, throwing for 244 yards and five touchdowns while completing 73.3% of his passes. Thanks to that strong showing, he's now averaging 3.2 passing touchdowns per game.

Cody Botts Delivers Electric Effort Vs Pocola
While Cody Botts delivered a dominant performance on Thursday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Hulbert. Botts turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 149 yards and two touchdowns on only 13 carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 66 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
Hulbert's loss was their tenth straight on the road dating back to last season, which dropped their record down to 1-5. Botts' next contest is against Haskell on Thursday, where he'll look to repeat that solid effort.
