If Walker wanted to avenge their loss from the last time they played Mount Paran Christian, they should've done a better job of containing Christian Holmes. The Eagles really took it to the Wolverines for the full four quarters, racking up a 42-12 win thanks in part to Holmes, who rushed for 130 yards and one touchdown while picking up 7.2 yards per carry. He didn't just play on offense: he also forced one fumble and made five total tackles (2.0 for loss).
One reason for the win was Mount Paran Christian's imposing defense, which managed to get into the backfield for three sacks. The team can thank two different players for their defensive prowess: Cooper Thompson and Logan Diggle, who each picked up one sack apiece. Mount Paran Christian received some extra help from Bennett Schwab, whose fumble return for a touchdown made for one of the most unforgettable moments.
When it comes to explaining why Walker lost on Friday, don't look at Christian Barjon. Despite the final result, he rushed for 72 yards and one TD on only ten carries.
