Dy'lan Johnson Turns in Season-Best Performance

For the season, Johnson has thrown 7 touchdowns while averaging 122.8 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had three rushing touchdowns. This year he is already up to five.

Terrell Robinson Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Friday, Baldwyn got the W thanks in part to Terrell Robinson playing the best football he has all season. Robinson rushed for 78 yards and two touchdowns on only nine carries.
Robinson must have Walnut's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Robinson rushed for 80 yards and two touchdowns on only 11 carries the last time he and the Wildcats duked it out back in September of 2023.
