Gavin Black Turns in Season-Best Effort
Gavin Black produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Permian to the win on Friday. Black's rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his sixth straight game with at least 177 rushing yards dating back to last season. He was no stranger to the big play, taking off on a dash that went for 63 yards.
The win for Permian keeps them at an undefeated 6-0. A feisty cat fight will be fought when Panthers faces off against San Angelo Central at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Chase Campbell Has Career-Day on Friday
Chase Campbell produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Frenship to the win on Friday. Campbell picked up 68 receiving yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 104 yards and a touchdown on only ten carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. The bulk of those receiving yards came from one huge play: a catch that gained an incredible 58 yards.
The win was the fifth in a row for Frenship, bringing their record for this year to 5-1. Campbell and Frenship will venture away from home to face off against Midland Legacy at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Another Game with at Least 122 Rushing Yards from Elijah Mccoy
Elijah McCoy's rushing tear continued on Friday as he dropped his sixth-straight game with 122+ rushing yards. He rushed for 215 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 9.3 yards per carry.
Midland moved to 4-2 with that defeat, which also ended their four-game winning streak. McCoy's next contest is against Odessa on Friday, where he'll look to repeat that solid performance.

Stroman Bridges Dazzles in Midland Defeat
Another Midland player making an appearance on this list is Stroman Bridges. He rushed for 116 yards and three touchdowns on only ten carries, and also threw for 31 yards and a touchdown.
Bridges must have Frenship's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Bridges rushed for 209 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries the last time he and the Tigers duked it out back in October of 2023.
