For the first time this season, Cyril will have a chance to prove themselves in a conference matchup. They will venture away from home to challenge the Weleetka Outlaws at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The two teams are strolling into their games after big wins in their previous games.
Weleetka will be up against a hot Cyril team: the squad just extended their winning streak to five. The Pirates simply couldn't be stopped on Friday as they easily beat Life Christian 56-6. That's two games straight that the Pirates have won by exactly 50 points.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Weleetka). They blew past Yale, posting a 54-6 win. The score at the end of the third wound up being the final score as the Outlaws just coasted through the last quarter.
Weleetka's win came from a few key players Cyril will need to keep an eye on. One of the most notable was Isaiah Drake, who threw for 368 yards and three TDs while picking up 15.3 yards per attempt, and also rushed for 122 yards and a pair of scores on only 12 carries. Bryant Sites was another key player, gaining 225 total yards and three touchdowns.
Wins are hard to come by when you can't run the rock, something Weleetka proved: they limited Yale to a paltry 3.5 yards per carry. The team can thank Noah Hare for the heroic effort on defense: he. Weleetka didn't have any issues in that department, having averaged 12.2.
Weleetka's defense didn't let Kaden Teter, get away unscathed either: they got into the backfield for four sacks. Leading the way was Hare with two.
Cyril's record now sits at 5-0. As for Weleetka, their record is now 4-0.
Cyril took a serious blow against Weleetka in their previous meeting back in October of 2024, falling 50-0. Can the Pirates avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
