Winning always takes teamwork, but on Thursday Malik Smith stepped things up a notch to give Florence the 'W'. Smith was dialed in as he rushed for 93 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries. He was up against Rio Rico and has quite the history against that squad, as he also had a great game the last time he faced them back in September of 2023.
Smith and Florence will take on Coolidge at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Gophers got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Bears, probably because Smith had a solid game then too: he rushed for 80 yards and two touchdowns. Can he match (or beat) that stellar performance? Check MaxPreps after the action for a full breakdown of the game and more football content.
