JJ Brutus and Co. Win Eighth in a Row
ALA - West Foothills picked up their eighth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to JJ Brutus. Nobody could stop Brutus as he picked up 2.5 sacks, made six total tackles (3.0 for loss), and defended a pass. What's more, he also racked up 115 rushing yards, the most he's had since back in October of 2023.
ALA - West Foothills' win was their fourth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 8-0. Brutus' next matchup is against Kofa on Friday, where he'll look to repeat that solid effort.

Cotten Came Up Big in ALA - West Foothills' 28-0 Win
Hunter Cotten was instrumental in extending ALA - West Foothills's winning streak to eight on Friday. Cotten was unstoppable, picking up a sack and making ten total tackles (3.0 for loss). The dominant performance also gave him a new career-high in rushing yards (94).
This season, Cotten has averaged 10.4 total tackles per game and for the season has 4 sacks. It gets even more impressive: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 6.14 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 23 rushing yards.

A Season-Best Performance from Avion Bailey Leads Dysart over Page
Dysart was led to victory by Avion Bailey, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Bailey rushed for 54 yards and a touchdown, and also picked up 54 receiving yards. The effort marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in August.
Page's probably not too fond of Bailey given he always seems to get the better of them. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Bailey saw the Sand Devils), he picked up 159 receiving yards and four touchdowns.
