Caleb Solis Delivers Best Effort of Season
Caleb Solis produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Clovis East to the win on Thursday. Solis wasn't messing around, picking up 3.5 sacks, forcing a fumble, and making seven total tackles (4.0 for loss). The matchup was his third straight with seven or more total tackles dating back to last season.
The win for Clovis East keeps them at an undefeated 7-0. Solis' next game is against Clovis on Friday, where he'll look to repeat that solid effort.
Gamescore: 33.50
Central had to settle for second on Thursday, but Brandon Smith sure wasn't going down easily. Smith was dynamite, rushing for 101 yards and two touchdowns. Central is undefeated when Smith posts 80 or more rushing yards, but 1-2 otherwise.
This year, Smith has averaged 25 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 42.71 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 97.71 rushing yards.

Lindsey Graves Dazzles in Clovis East Victory
Lindsey Graves was instrumental in extending Clovis East's winning streak to seven on Thursday. Graves turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 129 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 7.2 yards per carry.
Central had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Graves it was a similar story. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Graves saw the Grizzlies), he rushed for 61 yards and a touchdown, and also picked up 59 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Gamescore: 30.60
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Friday Ross Cinfel stepped things up a notch to give Clovis North the 'W'. Cinfel was dynamite, picking up 2.5 sacks and making ten total tackles (4.0 for loss).
This year, Cinfel has averaged 7.3 total tackles per game and for the season has 5 sacks. He is looking even better than he did last year: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 3.71 total tackles per game.
