Jared Curtis Delivers Best Performance of Season

If history really does repeat itself, Curtis might just drop another big game when he faces off against Fayetteville on Friday. Curtis threw for 346 yards and four touchdowns the last time he and the Tigers duked it out back in October of 2023.

Gardner Came Up Big in Donelson Christian Academy's 51-3 Victory
King Gardner's big game helped extend Donelson Christian Academy's winning streak to three on Friday. Gardner did his part (and then some), rushing for 136 yards and two touchdowns on only 12 carries for the 'W'. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 109 rushing yards dating back to last season.
Donelson Christian Academy's victory was their seventh straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 7-1. Gardner and Donelson Christian Academy will have some time to savor their win since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Grace Christian Academy at 7:00 p.m. on October 25th.
