Poth had already won six in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 39.8 points) and they went ahead and made it seven on Friday. They took their contest with ease, bagging a 42-7 victory over the Dilley Wolves. Given the Pirates' advantage in MaxPreps' Texas football rankings (they are ranked 120th, while the Wolves are ranked 709th) , the win wasn't entirely unexpected.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Poth to victory, but perhaps none more so than Payton Helford, who rushed for 161 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 8.9 yards per carry. Helford has been hot, having posted two or more rushing touchdowns the last seven times he's played. Another receiver making a difference was Antonio DeHoyos, who picked up 121 receiving yards and three scores.
They were just one part of a punishing run game: Poth was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 263 rushing yards. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now rushed for at least 155 rushing yards in seven consecutive games.
Another reason for the win was Poth's imposing defense, which managed to get into the backfield for three sacks. The team can thank three different players for their defensive prowess: Walker Stevens, Jaden Kotara, and Mason Delgado, who each picked up one sack apiece. Poth got some further help from Stevens: he picked up a sack, forced one fumble, and made ten total tackles.
Poth's win bumped their record up to 9-1. As for Dilley, their loss ended a three-game streak of wins at home and dropped them to 4-6.
