A Season-Best Effort from Reese Price Leads Wren over Fountain Inn
Reese Price produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Wren to the win on Friday. Price rushed for 206 yards and a touchdown while picking up 7.6 yards per carry, and also caught a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. That high mark didn't come from nowhere: he has now rushed for 107 or more in the last four games he's played dating back to last season.
This year, Price has run in 9 touchdowns while averaging 137.6 rushing yards per game.

Colten Bagwell Delivers Best Effort of Season
Wren was led to victory by Colten Bagwell, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Bagwell threw for 166 yards and three touchdowns while completing 75% of his passes, and also rushed for 44 yards and a touchdown.
Fountain Inn's probably not too fond of Bagwell given he always seems to get the better of them. Bagwell rushed for 44 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 93 yards and two touchdowns on perfect 6-for-6 passing the last time he and the Fury duked it out back in September of 2023.
