A Season-Best Performance from Steele Skinner Leads Holliday over Millsap
Steele Skinner produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Holliday to the win on Friday. Skinner rushed for 198 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
This season, Skinner has averaged 25.7 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 36.83 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 62.83 rushing yards.
Gamescore: 58.07
Another Game with at Least 106 Rushing Yards from Carson Rojas
Carson Rojas's rushing tear continued on Friday as he dropped his third-straight game with 106+ rushing yards. He rushed for 106 yards and a touchdown on only 14 carries.
Valley View is on a five-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-5. Rojas and Valley View are taking a road trip to take on Holliday at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 54.93
While Nixon Delaune delivered a dominant performance on Friday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Millsap. Delaune was dynamite, picking up a sack, making four total tackles, and defending a pass. He also put in work on the defensive side of the ball, picking up a sack, making four total tackles, and defending a pass.
Millsap has been struggling recently as they've lost three of their last four matches, which put a noticeable dent in their 2-4 record this season. Delaune and Millsap have the luxury of staying home for another week and will welcome Jacksboro at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 42.80
Big Game from Jones As Holliday Won 48-20
The second Holliday player making an appearance here is Hunter Jones, and for good reason. He threw for 283 yards and four touchdowns, and also punched in a rushing score.
This season, Jones has thrown 21 touchdowns while averaging 262 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had one rushing touchdown. This year he is already up to three.
