Jaylen Malcom Dazzles in Santa Teresa Loss

He torched the secondary when he pulled down a catch that went for 80 yards.

Jack Lewis Goes Supernova in Branham Win

Robinson Posts Huge Game in 31-14 Victory
Jaxen Robinson's big game helped extend Christopher's winning streak to five on Friday. Robinson was unstoppable, throwing for 282 yards and two touchdowns.
A feisty cat fight will be fought when Cougars faces off against Lincoln at 7:15 p.m. on Thursday. The Cougars got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Lions, probably because Robinson had a solid game then too: he threw for 154 yards and two touchdowns, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
