Anthony Henderson Jr.'s Big Game Leads Bruton over Arcadia
Bruton picked up their seventh consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Anthony Henderson Jr.. Nobody could stop Henderson Jr. as he picked up 111 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He really caught the secondary sleeping when he pulled down a catch that went for 75 yards.
Bruton pushed their record up to 7-0 with the victory, which was their third straight on the road. Henderson Jr. and Bruton will square off against York at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday.

Darrin Banks-Harrold and Co. Win Seventh in a Row
Bruton picked up their seventh consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Darrin Banks-Harrold. Banks-Harrold was unstoppable, making five total tackles (1.0 for loss).
For the season, Banks-Harrold has averaged 5.9 total tackles per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had one rushing touchdown. This year he is already up to six.

Bruton Gets a Boost from Bell in 53-0 Victory
Bruton picked up their seventh consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Ashton Bell. Bell did his part (and then some), throwing for 181 yards and three touchdowns on only 15 passes for the 'W'.
This season, Bell has thrown 13 touchdowns while averaging 146 passing yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he had one passing touchdown.

Luke Bryant Turns in Season-Best Effort
Sadly, Luke Bryant posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Grafton over Warhill on Friday. Bryant threw for 262 yards and three touchdowns while completing 72.7% of his passes.
Grafton is on a four-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-6. Bryant will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant performance when he faces off against Tabb on Friday.

Makale Barnett Makes It Two for Grafton
Another Grafton player making an appearance on this list is Makale Barnett. He picked up 67 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 62 yards. He got the majority of those receiving yards when he pulled down a pass and took off for a gain of 55 yards.
Barnett might have his next game, a road matchup with Tabb, circled on his calendar. Barnett rushed for 118 yards and a touchdown the last time he and the Tigers duked it out back in October of 2023.
