Peyton Mills Turns in Season-Best Performance
On Friday, Cutter-Morning Star got the W thanks in part to Peyton Mills playing the best football he has all season. Mills threw for 329 yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 34 yards. The effort marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in October of 2023. He has been hot recently, having posted three or more passing touchdowns the last three times he's played.
With the win, Cutter-Morning Star broke their seven-game losing streak and moved their record to 1-6. Mills and Cutter-Morning Star will look to defend their home field on Friday against Glen Rose at 7:00 p.m.

While Connor Frith delivered a dominant effort on Friday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Perryville. Frith was dynamite, making five total tackles. The bulk of those rushing yards came from one huge play: a run that gained an incredible 64 yards.
The defeat snapped Perryville's winning streak at five games and leaves them with a 5-2 record. Frith and Perryville will square off against Two Rivers at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
