The Green Canyon Wolves will face off against the Ridgeline Riverhawks at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Both teams are still undefeated after four-games, but that won't be the case come Friday.

Payton Wilson continued his habit of posting crazy stat lines, throwing for 244 yards and three touchdowns, while also rushing for 108 yards and a touchdown on only seven carries. He got the majority of those rushing yards when he took off on a run and that went for an incredible 80 yards. Colby Knight was Wilson's top target, picking up 104 receiving yards and a touchdown.
