Considering the Tornadoes have won nine games by more than 30 points this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.

It was truly a group effort as Blair Goodson, Micah Jones, Kenny Harris, and Nukeise Minor picked up one apiece. Harris has been hot, having also posted five or more total tackles the last five times he's played.

The team dominated over that stretch too, winning by an average of 37.4 points. As for Cherokee, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 7-4.
