If McDonough wanted to avenge their loss from the last time they played Stockbridge, they should've done a better job of containing Joshua Scott. The Tigers blew past the Warhawks 47-7 on Friday with plenty of help from Scott, who threw for 279 yards and five touchdowns while picking up 12.1 yards per attempt. With that strong performance, he is now averaging an impressive 3.2 passing touchdowns per game.
One reason for the win was Stockbridge's imposing defense, which managed to get into the backfield for six sacks. In that department, Cayden Bridges was the leader with two. He also set a new season-high mark in total tackles with seven. Stockbridge got some further help from Bryce Carter: he made nine total tackles (2.0 for loss) and defended one pass in addition to snagging an interception.
The victory (which was Stockbridge's third in a row) raised their record to 4-1. The wins came thanks in part to their defensive effort, having only surrendered 11.3 points on average over those games. As for McDonough, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 1-4.

After each having a week off, Stockbridge and Jones County will shake off the cobwebs and hit the field against one another at 7:30 p.m. on the 26th. The two teams might be coming in a bit winded given these two teams combined for 829 yards in their previous games.
