Koda Cutlip Turns in Season-Best Effort

This year, Cutlip has caught 9 touchdowns while averaging 77.3 receiving yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 2.71 receiving yards per game.

Johnson County Wins Eighth-Straight Thanks to Jonathan Csillag
Jonathan Csillag was instrumental in extending Johnson County's winning streak to eight on Friday. Nobody could stop Csillag as he picked up ten receiving yards.

Big Game from Jones As Unicoi County Won 42-13
The second Unicoi County player making an appearance here is Kolby Jones, and for good reason. He threw for 215 yards and four touchdowns while completing 90.9% of his passes.
If history really does repeat itself, Jones might just drop another big game when he faces off against Chuckey-Doak on Thursday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Jones saw the Black Knights), he threw for 305 yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 56 yards and a touchdown.

A Season-Best Performance from Jace Stout Leads Johnson County over Gatlinburg-Pittman
Johnson County was led to victory by Jace Stout, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Stout rushed for 135 yards and two touchdowns, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
If history really does repeat itself, Stout might just drop another big game when he faces off against Holston on Thursday. Stout picked up 107 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 56 yards the last time he and the Cavaliers duked it out back in October of 2023.
