Wins are hard to come by when you can't run the rock, something Hunt proved: they limited Fike to a paltry 0.7 yards per carry. The team can thank Judah Harris for the heroic effort on defense: he. Hunt didn't have any issues in that department, having averaged 8.1.

Special teams also deserves some recognition, posting 12 points in total. The biggest highlight from special teams (and perhaps the team as a whole) came courtesy of Jamauris Howard, who ran a kickoff back for a touchdown.

Fike lost despite a true team effort on offense. The best among them was Darryl Loatman, who picked up 121 receiving yards and three scores. He showed off some serious burst, cutting upfield on a catch for 65 yards. Sam Finch was another key player, having thrown for 392 yards and four touchdowns.

The win made it two in a row for Hunt and bumps their season record up to 8-2. The victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 40.0 points over those games. As for Fike, their loss dropped their record down to 4-6.

As of now, neither Hunt nor the Golden Demons have any future games scheduled.
