With a playoff win on the line, Carver rose to the challenge on Friday. They took their game with ease, bagging a 38-10 victory over the Thomson Bulldogs. Considering the Tigers have won 11 matchups by more than 25 points this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.
This one was won in the trenches and the lion's share of the credit has to go to Zach Watts and Jakobe Caslin. Watts rushed for 168 yards and a pair of touchdowns while picking up 9.3 yards per carry while Caslin rushed for 70 yards and two scores. Those 168 rushing yards gave Watts a new career-high.
Carver didn't let much get past them through the air: they limited Thomson to a completion percentage of just 31.2%. The team can thank Jaiden Taylor for the heroic effort on defense: he. Sadly, that's becoming something of a trend for Carver; they were averaging 61.2%completion percentage earlier this season, but in their last three contests they've fallen to only 61.2% (which corresponds perfectly with their time in the postseason).
Carver didn't go easy on the quarterback and picked off two passes before the game was over. The picks came courtesy of Antavius Watts and Kingston Brown. Carver got some further help from Tristian Givens: he picked up two sacks and made six total tackles (4.0 for loss).
