A big part of St. Pauls' victory came down to the chemistry between Antonio Arnold and his top target Malikah Locklear. Arnold threw for 163 yards and four touchdowns on only 13 passes while Locklear picked up 96 receiving yards and three TDs. Those three receiving touchdowns gave Locklear a new career-high. Speaking of playmakers, who could forget Aubrey Cobbs, who went all the way with a kickoff return for a touchdown.
One reason for the win was St. Pauls' imposing defense, which managed to get into the backfield for six sacks. Leading the way was Dezhian Roberts with four. He has been hot recently, having posted at least one sack the last three times he's played.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Seventy-First). They really took it to Douglas Byrd for the full four quarters, racking up a 63-0 win. The Falcons have beaten the Eagles the last seven times they've met, but they better watch out: this was the closest the Eagles has come to flipping the script.
St. Pauls' record is now 6-0. As for Seventy-First, their record now sits at 5-1.
