If Hyannis wanted to avenge their loss from the last time they played Maxwell, they should've done a better job of containing Jesse Reyes. The Wildcats breezed past the Longhorns to the tune of 70-36 on Friday with plenty of help from Reyes, who rushed for 205 yards and four scores while picking up 11.4 yards per carry, and also threw for 133 yards and three touchdowns while completing 75% of his passes. Reyes is crushing it when it comes to rushing touchdowns: he's punched in at least two every time he's taken the field this season.

Several Longhorns players turned in solid performances despite ultimately coming up short. Perhaps the best among those players was Dom Boppree, who rushed for 133 yards and a pair of TDs on only 13 carries, and also threw for 108 yards and one touchdown. Boppree's longest rush was for an impressive 61 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total. Another player making a difference was Ely Van Renan, who picked up 96 receiving yards and a pair of scores.

The win made it two in a row for Maxwell and bumps their season record up to 3-1. The victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 53.0 points over those games. As for Hyannis, their loss dropped their record down to 1-3.
