Davian Stephenson Delivers Electric Performance Vs Caruthers
Chowchilla picked up their sixth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Davian Stephenson. Stephenson turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 113 yards and two touchdowns on only 11 carries, while also throwing for 172 yards and two touchdowns on only ten passes. He has been hot recently, having posted two or more rushing touchdowns the last four times he's played.
Chowchilla pushed their record up to 8-1 with the victory, which was their ninth straight on the road dating back to last season. Stephenson and Chowchilla will look to defend their home field on Friday against Liberty at 7:00 p.m.

Chowchilla Wins Sixth-Straight Thanks to Dwayne Hemphill
Chowchilla picked up their sixth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Dwayne Hemphill. Hemphill was unstoppable, rushing for 53 yards and two touchdowns.
Caruthers's probably not too fond of Hemphill given he always seems to get the better of them. When Hemphill last faced the Blue Raiders back in October of 2023, he rushed for 124 yards and a touchdown while picking up 7.8 yards per carry.

Talan Lamattina and Co. Win Third in a Row

On the year, Lamattina has run in 8 touchdowns while averaging 65.7 rushing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after nine games last season, he was only averaging 38.78 rushing yards per game.
