Weiss is headed in fresh off scoring the most points they have all season. They blew past Lehman 79-0 on the road on Friday. Given the Wolves' advantage in MaxPreps' Texas football rankings (they are ranked 112th, while the Lobos are ranked 864th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.

With that strong performance, Schad is now averaging an impressive 3.2 passing touchdowns per game. The team also got some help courtesy of Tre Moore, who picked up 83 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
On the defensive side of the ball, a lot of the credit has to go to Weiss' defense and their four sacks. Lehman's QB won't forget Izaiah Bovan anytime soon given he sacked him twice. Bovan is also crushing it when it comes to total tackles: he's made at least seven every time he's taken the field this season. Another thorn in Lehman's side was Kaiden Haynes Collins, who made four total tackles (2.0 for loss) and snagged an interception which he returned one-yard for a touchdown.
Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, Weiss was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 211 rushing yards. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Lehman only rushed for 72.
