Mill Creek will need to focus on slowing down Daniel Mpelempele, one of several Discovery players who made an impact when they last played. He picked up 75 receiving yards and a pair of TDs. Maximus Newson was another key player, throwing for 183 yards and three touchdowns.

Don't try to pin the team's loss on the defense: they kept the trenches locked down and allowed a mere 2.8 yards per carry. The team can thank Kendall Sword for the heroic effort on defense: he.
