Millbrook's success was spearheaded by the efforts of Brilison McCullers, who rushed for 45 yards and a pair of touchdowns, and Malachi Gilchrist, who picked up 103 receiving yards. That's the most receiving yards Gilchrist has posted since back in October.

Millbrook's run defense was locked in: Hoggard could only muster 0.9 yards per carry. The team can thank Rashad Streets for the heroic effort on defense: he. Sadly, that's becoming something of a trend for Millbrook; they were averaging 5.8yards per carry per game earlier this season, but in their last three games they've fallen to only 4.8 per game (which corresponds perfectly with their time in the postseason).

Millbrook didn't go easy on the quarterback and picked off two passes before the game was over. The picks came courtesy of Malcolm McIntyre and Quinton Cypher. Streets was another major factor on D, picking up 3.5 sacks, forcing one fumble, and making ten total tackles (4.5 for loss).

Meanwhile, Hough faced West Charlotte in a battle between two of the state's top teams last Friday. The Huskies never let the Lions get on the board and left with a 24-0 victory. The Huskies might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won nine matchups by 22 points or more this season.

Millbrook better focus on containing Jamarion Morrison and Ethan Royal as the pair were huge in Hough's win. Morrison rushed for 134 yards and one score on only 14 carries, while Royal rushed for 37 yards and one TD.

Hough's win bumped their record up to 13-0. As for Millbrook, their victory bumped their record up to an identical 13-0.
