Bryson Brown Delivers Best Effort of Season

Niceville's victory was their fifth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 7-1. Lewis Jr and Niceville are taking a road trip to square off against Milton at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.

Mosley Wins Eighth-Straight Thanks to Sammy Freitas
Mosley picked up their eighth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Sammy Freitas. Freitas was unstoppable, throwing for 170 yards and three touchdowns while completing 92.3% of his passes.
Freitas must have Arnold's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Freitas threw for 139 yards and three touchdowns on perfect 6-for-6 passing, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground the last time he and the Marlins duked it out back in September of 2023.
