Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Triway to victory, but perhaps none more so than Grayson Smith, who rushed for 152 yards and two TDs while picking up 8.0 yards per carry. Smith also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making five total tackles and defending one pass. Triway also got help from Brandt Clippinger, who showed off his sure hands for 92 receiving yards.

They were just one part of a punishing run game: Triway was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 230 rushing yards. That's a new trend for them: they were averaging 96.4 rushing yards per game earlier this season, but in their last five games they've averaged 198.3.

On the other side of the ball, a lot of the credit has to go to Triway's defense and their five sacks. Leading the way was Roman Gilbert with two.

Meanwhile, Genoa Area won against Lake back in October with 35 points and they decided to stick to that point total again on Friday. The Comets claimed a resounding 35-7 victory over Port Clinton. The final result isn't all that surprising considering the Comets' considerable advantage in MaxPreps' Ohio football rankings (they are ranked 131st, while the Redskins are ranked 323rd).

Triway's record is now 10-1. As for Genoa Area, their record now sits at an identical 10-1.
