Nelson Peterson Jr's Big Game Can't Quite Lead Forney over Rockwall
Forney was sadly handed a defeat on Friday, but Nelson Peterson Jr did his best to prevent it. Nobody could stop Peterson Jr as he threw for 309 yards and six touchdowns.
Forney has been struggling recently as they've lost three of their last four matches, which put a noticeable dent in their 3-5 record this season. Peterson Jr and Forney will have a little extra prep time after the loss as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on Tyler Legacy at 7:30 p.m. on November 1st.
Gamescore: 36.50
Underclassman Carter Zahm Comes Up Big Against Royse City
While Friday's win was certainly a team effort, someone pulling more than their own weight was underclassman Carter Zahm. He did his part (and then some), rushing for 72 yards and two touchdowns on only eight carries, while also picking up 61 receiving yards and a touchdown for the 'W'.
Rockwall-Heath's victory bumped their record up to 3-4. Zahm and Rockwall-Heath will be playing in front of their home fans against Longview at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.

Camron Marsh Goes Supernova in Rockwall Victory
Camron Marsh posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Friday. He picked up 78 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground.

This season, Marsh has caught 10 touchdowns while averaging 82.1 receiving yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 18.57 receiving yards per game.
