Mountain Grove Wins Fifth-Straight Thanks to Braydon Curtiss
Braydon Curtiss was instrumental in extending Mountain Grove's winning streak to five on Friday. Curtiss' rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 133 rushing yards dating back to last season. He also punched in two rushing touchdowns, which is notable because Mountain Grove is undefeated when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns, but 0-3 otherwise.
Mountain Grove's victory was their third straight at home, which pushed their record up to 5-3. A feisty cat fight will be fought when Panthers faces off against Thayer at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
