A Season-Best Performance from Legend Bey Leads North Forney over Rockwall-Heath
North Forney was led to victory by Legend Bey, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Bey's rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his sixth straight game with at least 118 rushing yards. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 75-yard run.
The win (which was North Forney's fifth in a row) raised their record to 5-2. Bey and North Forney will have some time to savor their victory since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Royse City at 7:30 p.m. on October 25th.

Prosper Neal Delivers Best Effort of Season
