Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Hillcrest). They claimed a resounding 54-0 win over the Bremen Braves. That's more bragging rights for the Hawks, who also won the pair's last head-to-head.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Hillcrest to victory, but perhaps none more so than Khyran Bullard, who rushed for 63 yards and one TD on only six carries. The bulk of those rushing yards came from one huge play: a run that gained an incredible 50 yards.
