Trevyn Wall had another great game (as he tends to do), throwing for 432 yards and four TDs, while also rushing for 53 yards and one score. That's the most passing touchdowns he has posted since back in October of 2024. Payson's leading receiver Carson Wall was Trevyn's top target yet again, picking up 148 receiving yards and a pair of touchdowns.
On the other side of the ball, a lot of the credit has to go to Payson's defensive line and their 3.5 sacks. The team can thank three different players for their defensive prowess: Cade Muir, Mitchell Jensen, and Adrian Enriquez-Barahona, who each picked up one sack apiece.
As for Wasatch, they dropped their record down to 3-5 with the defeat, which was their third straight on the road. They were up 19-0 in the second quarter but couldn't hold on to the lead.
Loss or not, Wasatch got some senior leadership from Joseph Bradley and Ben Brand. Bradley rushed for 119 yards and one score on only 13 carries, while Brand rushed for 155 yards and one TD. Bradley's longest rush was for an impressive 55 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
