Dane Dunn Delivers Best Effort of Season
On Friday, Sierra Canyon got the W thanks in part to Dane Dunn playing the best football he has all season. Dunn rushed for 72 yards and three touchdowns, and also caught a touchdown.
The victory got Sierra Canyon back to even at 3-3. Dunn and Sierra Canyon will challenge Notre Dame (SO) at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Jaxsen Stokes' Rushing Yards a New Career-High
On Friday, Sierra Canyon got the W thanks in part to Jaxsen Stokes playing the best football he has all season. Stokes rushed for 124 yards and two touchdowns on only ten carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 74-yard run.
Stokes and Sierra Canyon will venture away from home to take on Notre Dame (SO) at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Trailblazers got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Knights, probably because Stokes had a solid game then too: he rushed for 44 yards and a touchdown. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
Gamescore: 33.37
Jayshawn Edwards produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Serra to the win on Friday. Edwards rushed for 73 yards and four touchdowns, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
On the year, Edwards has run in those 4 touchdowns while averaging 18.8 rushing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after six games last season, he was only averaging 5.33 rushing yards per game.
Gamescore: 31.40
Butler Posts Huge Game in 42-35 Victory
Keeping Edwards company is Jimmy Butler, a fellow Serra player. He threw for 326 yards and a touchdown, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground.
Butler and Serra are on the road again on Friday to play Chaminade at 7:00 p.m. The last time Butler took on the Eagles, he threw for 135 yards and two touchdowns. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
