Dylan Macon Makes It Two for Burroughs
Another Burroughs player making an appearance on this list is Dylan Macon. He rushed for 86 yards and three touchdowns on only ten carries.
Unfortunately for Priory, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Macon. Macon rushed for 137 yards on only 14 carries the last time he and the Ravens duked it out back in September of 2023.
Gamescore: 31.20
MICDS had to settle for second on Saturday, but Brian Gould sure wasn't going down easily. Nobody could stop Gould as he rushed for 53 yards and a touchdown, and also picked up 38 receiving yards.
Gould and MICDS will look to defend their home field on Thursday against Lutheran South at 3:45 p.m. The game will pit Gould up against the Lancers' star quarterback Ben Long. So who wins this QB-duel? There's only one way to know for sure.
