Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Chowchilla). They blew past the Riverdale Cowboys, posting a 54-0 victory. The Tribe haven't had any issues with the Cowboys recently, as the game was their third consecutive win against them.
Chowchilla's success was the result of a balanced attack that saw several players step up, but Tristan Beardsley led the charge by rushing for 16 yards and one TD, while also throwing for 77 yards and one touchdown. Beardsley's passing game has become a key predictor of the Tribe's success: the team is undefeated when his passer rating is 100 or higher, but only 1-2 otherwise. Another rusher making a difference was Sean Hadley, who rushed for 40 yards and a pair of scores.
