Jake Newman Delivers Best Effort of Season
On Friday, Ethel got the W thanks in part to Jake Newman playing the best football he has all season. Newman rushed for 61 yards and three touchdowns, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
Ethel's win ended a four-game drought on the road dating back to last season and puts them at 3-4. Newman and Ethel will welcome McAdams at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday.

Velma Jackson Wins Fifth-Straight Thanks to Tyshun Willis
Tyshun Willis was instrumental in extending Velma Jackson's winning streak to five on Thursday. McAdams had no answer to Willis as he picked up a sack and made two total tackles (2.0 for loss). Willis also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up a sack and making two total tackles (2.0 for loss).
Willis must have McAdams' number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Willis saw the Bulldogs), he picked up two sacks, forced two fumbles, and made four total tackles.
