Alvin Henderson continued his hot streak on Friday by dropping his 23rd-straight game (dating back to last season) with at least two rushing touchdowns. He rushed for 243 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 14.3 yards per carry. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 94-yard run.

Jackson Made His Presence Known in Mckenzie's 52-44 Victory
Quay Jackson's big game helped extend McKenzie's winning streak to five on Friday. Jackson did his part (and then some), throwing for 237 yards and three touchdowns on only 17 passes, while also rushing for 34 yards and a touchdown for the 'W'. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making four total tackles and defending three passes in addition to snagging two interceptions.
McKenzie pushed their record up to 8-1 with the win, which was their third straight at home. Jackson and McKenzie will head out on the road to take on Red Level at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Florala Wins Fourth-Straight Thanks to Rayshon Coleman
Rayshon Coleman was instrumental in extending Florala's winning streak to four on Friday. Coleman was excellent, rushing for 131 yards and two touchdowns on only six carries. The performance once again pushed his average rushing yardage north of 100 yards per game (100.6).
Florala is on a roll lately: they've won five of their last six matches, which provided a nice bump to their 7-2 record this season. A feisty cat fight will be fought when Wildcats dukes it out withElba at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Cayden Adkins' Big Game Leads Elba over Georgiana
Cayden Adkins was instrumental in extending Elba's winning streak to six on Friday. Adkins turned in nothing short of a gem, picking up a sack and making 14 total tackles. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up a sack and making 14 total tackles.
Georgiana's probably not too fond of Adkins given he always seems to get the better of them. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Adkins saw the Panthers), he made ten total tackles (2.0 for loss).
