Peyton Johnson Delivers Best Performance of Season

Blake Terryberry Goes Supernova in West Grand Win
West Grand picked up their eighth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Blake Terryberry. Vail Christian had no answer to Terryberry as he rushed for 65 yards and two touchdowns on only eight carries, and also threw for 144 yards and three touchdowns.
Unfortunately for Vail Christian, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Terryberry. When Terryberry last faced the Saints back in October of 2023, he rushed for 91 yards and four touchdowns, and also threw for 161 yards and two touchdowns while completing 72.2% of his passes.

Joe Probst and Co. Win Eighth in a Row
Joe Probst was instrumental in extending West Grand's winning streak to eight on Friday. Vail Christian had no answer to Probst as he picked up 157 receiving yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 31 yards.
Probst is probably looking forward to his next game, a home matchup against Hayden on Friday. Probst picked up 181 receiving yards and three touchdowns the last time he and the Tigers duked it out back in October of 2023.

Danek Demorat Turns in Season-Best Performance
On Friday, Hayden got the W thanks in part to Danek Demorat playing the best football he has all season. Demorat rushed for 75 yards and a touchdown on only seven carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
On the year, Demorat has run in 3 touchdowns while averaging 23.9 rushing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 0.29 rushing yards per game.

West Grand Wins Eighth-Straight Thanks to Jackson Steinle
West Grand picked up their eighth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Jackson Steinle. Steinle was unstoppable, picking up 42 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Steinle might have his next game, a home matchup with Hayden, circled on his calendar. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Steinle saw the Tigers), he picked up 151 receiving yards and three touchdowns.
