A Season-Best Performance from Griffin Beard Leads Fredericksburg over Canyon Lake

While Canyon Lake might've come up empty on Friday, Jaxon Ammons wasn't going down without a fight. Fredericksburg had no answer to Ammons as he picked up two sacks, forced two fumbles, and made seven total tackles (5.0 for loss). Ammons has become a key player for Canyon Lake: the team is undefeated when he posts at least one forced fumble, but 1-2 otherwise.

Big Game from Fallon As Davenport Won 77-15
Another Davenport player making an appearance on this list is Barrett Fallon. He rushed for 99 yards and three touchdowns on only 11 carries. The bulk of those rushing yards came from one huge play: a run that gained an incredible 50 yards.
Fallon might have his next game, a road matchup with Fredericksburg, circled on his calendar. Back in November of 2023 (the last time Fallon saw the Billies), he rushed for 165 yards and two touchdowns on only 15 carries, and also caught a touchdown.
