Big Game from Goldston As Leesville Road Won 56-14
Leesville Road picked up their seventh consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Deiondre Goldston. Goldston did his part (and then some), throwing for 269 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 12.2 yards per attempt for the 'W'. He is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in the last three games he's played dating back to last season.
Unfortunately for Broughton, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Goldston. Goldston threw for 220 yards and three touchdowns the last time he and the Capitals duked it out back in October of 2023.
