For the first time in his career, Jaylen McDaniel scored a rushing touchdown on Friday. He rushed for 18 yards and one score, but sadly Ball still had to take a 23-16 loss at the hands of Beaumont United. We rated that as his best performance since September 19th, when he rushed for 90 yards on only nine carries.
McDaniel and Ball will have a little extra prep time after the loss as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on Barbers Hill at 7:00 p.m. on the 24th. The Tornadoes will be headed into this one with a sizable disadvantage in the rankings (they're ranked 347 places lower in Texas), but they're not letting that get them down. Will they be able to pull off an upset behind McDaniel? Check back here after the action for a full breakdown and analysis of the contest.
