Christian Gardner Delivers Best Effort of Season
Sadly, Christian Gardner posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Mission Heights Prep over Heritage Academy on Thursday. Gardner rushed for 151 yards and two touchdowns on only ten carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He has become a key player for Mission Heights Prep: the team is 2-1 when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns, but 1-4 otherwise.
This season, Gardner has run in 4 touchdowns while averaging 53.5 rushing yards per game.

Big Game from Cahall As Heritage Academy Won 40-26
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Thursday Elliott Cahall stepped things up a notch to give Heritage Academy the 'W'. Cahall was unstoppable, rushing for 142 yards and a touchdown on only 14 carries, while also throwing for 45 yards and a touchdown. The bulk of those rushing yards came from one huge play: a run that gained an incredible 85 yards.
Mission Heights Prep had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Cahall it was a similar story. Cahall picked up 187 receiving yards and two touchdowns the last time he and the Phantoms duked it out back in September.
