Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Redding Christian). They breezed past the Weed Cougars to the tune of 61-18 on Friday. The result was nothing new for the Lions, who have now won nine games by 20 points or more so far this season.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Redding Christian to victory, but perhaps none more so than Wyatt Shaw, who threw for 205 yards and six TDs while completing 85.7% of his passes. Shaw is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in each of the last eight games he's played. Conner Moore helped Shaw out on the ground, rushing for 101 yards and a pair of scores on only six carries.
