Steele Skinner Delivers Best Performance of Season
Holliday was led to victory by Steele Skinner, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Skinner rushed for 198 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
For the season, Skinner has averaged 25.7 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 36.83 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 62.83 rushing yards.

Carson Rojas Turns in Another Game with at Least 106 Rushing Yards
Carson Rojas's rushing tear continued on Friday as he dropped his third-straight game with 106+ rushing yards dating back to last season. He rushed for 106 yards and a touchdown on only 14 carries.
Valley View is on a five-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-5. Rojas and Valley View are taking a road trip to challenge Holliday at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 54.93
While Nixon Delaune delivered a dominant effort on Friday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Millsap. Delaune was unstoppable, picking up a sack, making four total tackles, and defending a pass. He also put in work on the defensive side of the ball, picking up a sack, making four total tackles, and defending a pass.
Millsap has traveled a rocky road recently having lost three of their last four games, which put a noticeable dent in their 2-4 record this season. Delaune and Millsap have the luxury of staying home for another week and will welcome Jacksboro at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
