John Battle's first win this season bumped their record up to 1-3. Surprisingly, this marked their fourth straight game in which the away team has come away the victor.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead John Battle to victory, but perhaps none more so than Caden Sturgill, who rushed for 92 yards and one TD, and also threw for 171 yards and one touchdown while completing 76% of his passes. A healthy portion of Sturgill's aerial production (113 yards to be exact) went to Kaidden Dean, who also brought in a receiving touchdown.
Coming up, Central Wise will square off against Union at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Bears' defense has only allowed 8.5 points per game this season, so the Warriors' offense will have their work cut out for them. As for John Battle, they will challenge Patrick Henry at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Trojans will be up against the Rebels' rather soft defense (which has allowed 35 points per match), so fans could be in store for a big offensive performance.
