It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but the Mart Panthers had no problem doing just that on Thursday. They breezed by Cumby at home to the tune of 58-0. The victory was just business as usual for Mart, who after 11 games remain undefeated this season.
Leading Mart to victory were De'Montrel Medlock and Jd Bell. Medlock rushed for 53 yards and three touchdowns, while Bell rushed for 116 yards and three touchdowns on only five carries. Bell is on a roll when it comes to rushing touchdowns, as he's now punched in two or more in the last four games he's played. Ethan Hocking was another key contributor, rushing for 43 yards and a touchdown.
Mart has yet to lose a game at home this season, leaving them with a 11-0 record. They've been dominating during the matchups in that stretch too, as they've won by an average of 51.5 points. As for Cumby, they have not been sharp recently, as they've lost four of their last five games, which put a noticeable dent in their 3-8 record this season.
Mart will take on Overton at TBD on Friday. Overton is also coming in off of a big victory, so somebody is in for a big reversal of fortune. Cumby does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
