Big Game from Orris As West Forsyth Won 37-14
West Forsyth found a leader in Foster Orris as the team took down Forsyth Central on Friday. Orris was unstoppable, rushing for 108 yards and a touchdown, while also picking up 60 receiving yards.
Forsyth Central's probably not too fond of Orris given he always seems to get the better of them. Orris rushed for 136 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 7.6 yards per carry, and also picked up 61 receiving yards and a touchdown the last time he and the Bulldogs duked it out back in October of 2023.

Max Walraven Makes It Two for West Forsyth
Keeping Orris company is Max Walraven, a fellow West Forsyth player. He threw for 250 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 12.5 yards per attempt.
Walraven might have his next game, a home matchup with South Forsyth, circled on his calendar. Back in November of 2023 (the last time Walraven saw the War Eagles), he threw for 194 yards and five touchdowns on only 17 passes.
