Jude Dunivin Turns in Season-Best Effort
On Friday, Amarillo got the W thanks in part to Jude Dunivin playing the best football he has all season. Dunivin rushed for 159 yards and a touchdown on only 15 carries, and also picked up 92 receiving yards and a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest reception was for an incredible 76 yards.
Amarillo's win was their fourth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 6-4. Dunivin and Amarillo will take on Richland at 6:00 p.m. on Saturday.
