Gavin Black had another great game (as he tends to do), rushing for 161 yards and three TDs.
Wins are hard to come by when you can't run the rock, something Permian proved: they limited Frenship to a paltry 1.8 yards per carry. The team can thank Malachi Mendoza for the heroic effort on defense: he. Permian didn't have any issues in that department, having averaged 5.8.
Permian's defense didn't let Quaid Ferris, get away unscathed either: they got into the backfield for three sacks. In that department, Luis Zapiain was the leader with two. Cameron Mattingly got in on the action too, converting a pick into a touchdown.
