With the defeat, Arizona Lutheran Academy broke their six-game winning streak and moved their record to 6-3. Enter and Arizona Lutheran Academy will get a bit of extra time to process the loss as their next game is a ways off. They'll take on St. John Paul II Catholic at 7:00 p.m. on November 1st.

S?nchez Caldwell Came Up Big in Tonopah Valley's 30-24 Win
Sir-Izzik S?nchez Caldwell's big game helped extend Tonopah Valley's winning streak to nine on Friday. S?nchez Caldwell was unstoppable, throwing for 378 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 11.5 yards per attempt.
S?nchez Caldwell might have his next game, a road matchup with Antelope, circled on his calendar. S?nchez Caldwell rushed for 107 yards and a touchdown on only ten carries, and also picked up 80 receiving yards the last time he and the Rams duked it out back in October of 2023.
Gamescore: 39.10
Things weren't looking good for San Pasqual Valley heading into Thursday's tilt with NFL Yet Academy(they were ranked 804 places lower in their respective states), but Isaiah Martinez wasn't phased. Martinez did his part (and then some), picking up 136 receiving yards and a touchdown for the 'W'. He also put in work on the defensive side of the ball, making six total tackles and defending a pass in addition to snagging an interception.
This season, Martinez has caught 5 touchdowns while averaging 86.1 receiving yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 37.29 receiving yards per game.
Gamescore: 31.43
Elijah Harris Makes It Two for Arizona Lutheran Academy
Another Arizona Lutheran Academy player making an appearance on this list is Elijah Harris. He picked up 69 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 45 yards.
Harris is probably looking forward to his next game, a road matchup against St. John Paul II Catholic on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Harris saw the Lions), he rushed for 97 yards and two touchdowns on only eight carries, and also picked up 36 receiving yards and a touchdown.
