The Mays Raiders's homestand will continue as they prepare to take on the Starr's Mill Panthers at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. One thing working in Mays' favor is that they have posted at least 31 points in their last three games.
Mays is headed in fresh off scoring the most points they have all season. They blew past Forest Park, posting a 49-0 win. The result was nothing new for the Raiders, who have now won four matches by 26 points or more so far this season.
Jaylen Wyatt had an outrageously good game as he threw for 202 yards and three touchdowns on only 14 passes, and also rushed for 36 yards and a touchdown. Those 36 rushing yards gave him a new career-high. Clayton Coppock also deserves a mention for his punt return touchdown.
Another reason for the win was Mays' imposing defense, which managed to get into the backfield for eight sacks.
