It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but Herriman had no problem doing just that on Friday. They claimed a resounding 62-32 win over the Weber Warriors. The Mustangs might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won eight games by 20 points or more this season.

Tyler Messer continued his habit of posting crazy stat lines, throwing for 268 yards and two touchdowns while completing 87.5% of his passes, and also rushing for 74 yards and one TD on only eight carries. What's more, he racked up 140.6 passer rating, the most he's had since back in August. Felisi Felipe was another key player, rushing for 104 yards and three scores on only 11 carries.

Herriman's run defense was locked in: Weber could only muster one yards per carry. The team can thank Troy Ellermeier for the heroic effort on defense: he. Herriman didn't have any issues in that department, having averaged 8.7.

Several Warriors players turned in solid performances despite ultimately coming up short. Perhaps the best among those players was CARTER PAYNE, who threw for 279 yards and three touchdowns. PAYNE's passing game has become a key predictor of Weber's success: the team is 3-1 when his passer rating is 100 or higher, but only 1-5 otherwise. CREED DEVRIES was PAYNE's top target, picking up 161 receiving yards and a pair of TDs.

The victory (which was Herriman's third in a row) raised their record to 10-1. Those wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 53.3 points over those games. As for Weber, they are on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 4-6.

Herriman wasted no time getting back out on the field and has already played their next contest, a 22-14 defeat against Mountain Ridge on the 7th. Weber does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
