Mason is leaving town to face Brady after disappointing their home crowd in their season opener. Mason came up short against Wall on Friday, falling 28-6. While losing is never fun, the Punchers can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Texas football rankings (they are ranked 469th, while the Hawks are ranked 233rd).
Meanwhile, Brady got themselves on the board against Young Men's Leadership Academy on Friday, but Young Men's Leadership Academy never followed suit.

Brady's win was a true team effort, with many players turning in solid performances. Perhaps the best among them was Ashton Taylor, who rushed for 146 yards and a touchdown. Johnny Menefield also helped out as he racked up 101 rushing yards.
Brady was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 319 rushing yards. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Young Men's Leadership Academy only rushed for 33.
Everything came up roses for Mason against Brady in their previous matchup back in September of 2023 as the squad secured a 41-7 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for Mason since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
