Chris Gordon and Co. Win 18th in a Row
Tatnall picked up their 18th consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Chris Gordon. Gordon turned in his biggest game of the season, picking up 205 receiving yards and four touchdowns. Perhaps even more impressive was his lead-up to Friday's match, in which he outscored his previous point total for three consecutive games.
Tatnall's win was their tenth straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 6-0. Gordon and Tatnall will head out to face off against DuPont at 6:00 p.m. on Friday.

Juan Aldas Delivers Best Effort of Season
On Saturday, Wilmington Charter got the W thanks in part to Juan Aldas playing the best football he has all season. Aldas picked up a sack and made 16 total tackles (3.0 for loss), good enough to also set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
Aldas is probably looking forward to his next game, a road matchup against Delcastle Technical on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Aldas saw the Cougars), he picked up two sacks, forced a fumble, and made 15 total tackles (4.0 for loss).

Jamar Smith Delivers Electric Effort Vs Christiana
Glasgow was sadly handed a defeat on Friday, but Jamar Smith did his best to prevent it. Smith was unstoppable, rushing for 140 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 8.8 yards per carry. His longest rush was for an incredible 90 yards.
Glasgow dropped their record down to 1-6 with the loss, which was their fourth straight on the road dating back to last season. Smith and Glasgow will have a little extra prep time after the defeat as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on DuPont at 6:00 p.m. on October 25th.

Tatnall Wins 18th-Straight Thanks to Quinn De Viere
Quinn De Viere was instrumental in extending Tatnall's winning streak to 18 on Friday. De Viere threw for 342 yards and six touchdowns while picking up 14.3 yards per attempt, good enough for us to rate the performance as the best he's had all season long.
On the season, De Viere has thrown 13 touchdowns while averaging 146.5 passing yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after six games last season, he was only averaging 27.78 passer rating per game. This year he is averaging 92.17 passer rating.
