Owen Hatfield and Co. Win Fourth in a Row
Council picked up their fourth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Owen Hatfield. Hatfield was dynamite, rushing for 183 yards and five touchdowns while picking up 8.3 yards per carry, and also throwing for 138 yards and a touchdown on only 11 passes.
Council's victory was their third straight at home, which pushed their record up to 5-1. Hatfield's next contest is against Cascade on Friday, where he'll look to repeat that solid performance.

Big Game from Olson As Cascade Won 36-14
Cascade found a leader in Cole Olson as the squad took down Horseshoe Bend on Friday. Horseshoe Bend had no answer to Olson as he rushed for 195 yards and three touchdowns on only 11 carries. Olson didn't just play on offense: he also picked up two sacks and made eight total tackles.
Cascade pushed their record up to 4-1 with the win, which was their fourth straight on the road. Olson and Cascade will welcome Council at 3:30 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 74.20
Garden Valley was sadly handed a loss on Friday, but Trevor Corn did his best to prevent it. Corn was dynamite, rushing for 140 yards and a touchdown while picking up 8.2 yards per carry.
The defeat snapped Garden Valley's winning streak at four games and leaves them with a 4-1 record. Corn will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant effort when he faces off against Tri-Valley on Friday.
