Travion Mosley Goes Supernova in West Lauderdale Victory
Travion Mosley's big game helped extend West Lauderdale's winning streak to six on Friday. Mosley did his part (and then some), rushing for 148 yards and two touchdowns on only seven carries for the 'W'. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 70-yard run.
West Lauderdale's win was their third straight at home, which pushed their record up to 7-3. Mosley and West Lauderdale will take on Newton County at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday.

Todd Edmond Makes It Two for Leake Central
Another Leake Central player making an appearance on this list is Todd Edmond. He threw for 292 yards and four touchdowns while completing 71.4% of his passes.
If history really does repeat itself, Edmond might just drop another big game when he faces off against North Forrest on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Edmond saw the Eagles), he threw for 320 yards and six touchdowns while picking up 11.4 yards per attempt.

K.P PEOPLES's Big Game Leads West Lauderdale over Choctaw Central
K.P PEOPLES was instrumental in extending West Lauderdale's winning streak to six on Friday. PEOPLES turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 48 yards and two touchdowns, while also throwing for 79 yards and a touchdown.
PEOPLES and West Lauderdale will challenge Newton County at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. The Knights got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Cougars, probably because PEOPLES had a solid game then too: he rushed for 38 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 28 yards and a touchdown. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
Gamescore: 29.87
