It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but Superior had no problem doing just that on Friday. They blew past the Salome Frogs 56-28. Considering the Panthers have won six matchups by more than 21 points this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.
Superior's win was the result of several impressive offensive performances. One of the most notable came from Antonio Lopez, who threw for 315 yards and five touchdowns while picking up 15.8 yards per attempt. Jaleel Atkins helped Lopez out on the ground, rushing for 128 yards and three scores on only seven carries.
Superior's defense stepped up as well, laying out the QB three times. Leading the way was Adam Sandoval with 2.5 sacks. Superior is undefeated when Sandoval posts one or more sacks, but 1-2 otherwise.
Salome's loss shouldn't obscure the performances of Chris Smith, who rushed for 132 yards while picking up 7.8 yards per carry, and Alan Barber, who picked up 121 receiving yards.
The win (which was Superior's fourth in a row) raised their record to 8-2. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 46.0 points over those games. As for Salome, they dropped their record down to 4-6 with the defeat, which was their third straight on the road.
Superior has already played their next contest, a 72-30 loss against Mogollon on the 31st. Salome does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
