Underclassman Griffin Beard Comes Up Big Against Pleasanton
While Friday's victory was certainly a team effort, someone pulling more than their own weight was underclassman Griffin Beard. He turned in nothing short of a gem on Friday, picking up 111 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He didn't just play on offense: he also made seven total tackles and defended a pass.
Fredericksburg has been performing well recently as they've won three of their last four contests, which provided a massive bump to their 3-5 record this season. Beard and Fredericksburg will head out to challenge John F. Kennedy at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Daniel Soukup Ii Delivers Electric Effort Vs Somerset
Daniel Soukup Ii's big game helped extend Davenport's winning streak to five on Friday. Soukup Ii did his part (and then some), throwing for 168 yards and three touchdowns while completing 75% of his passes, and also rushing for 45 yards and a touchdown for the 'W'.
For the year, Soukup Ii has thrown 15 touchdowns (and and only 3 pick) while averaging 180.7 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 9.86 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 59.86 rushing yards.
Gamescore: 34.30
Aiden Rich Delivers Best Effort of Season
Sadly, Aiden Rich posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Pleasanton over Fredericksburg on Friday. Rich picked up 135 receiving yards and a touchdown. Pleasanton is 2-1 when Rich posts 100 or more receiving yards, but 1-3 otherwise.
For the year, Rich has caught 6 touchdowns while averaging 93.4 receiving yards per game.
