Charlie Pote Delivers Electric Performance Vs Stephenville FAITH

The win was the fourth in a row for Gloria Deo Academy, bringing their record for this year to 6-1. Spondike and Gloria Deo Academy are taking a road trip to take on Summit Christian Academy at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.

Founders Classical Academy Wins Third-Straight Thanks to Beck Sherwood
Beck Sherwood was instrumental in extending Founders Classical Academy's winning streak to three on Friday. Tribe W had no answer to Sherwood as he threw for 325 yards and seven touchdowns while picking up 13.5 yards per attempt.

Gamescore: 47.27
Boone Tucker Turns in Another Game with at Least Five Total Tackles
BVCHEA HomeSchool was led to victory by Boone Tucker, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Tucker wasn't messing around, picking up two sacks, making 15 total tackles (5.0 for loss), and defending two passes. The match was his tenth straight with five or more total tackles dating back to last season.
Tucker and BVCHEA HomeSchool will be playing in front of their home fans against Austin Royals HomeSchool at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. The Mustangs got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Royals, probably because Tucker had a solid game then too: he picked up a sack and made seven total tackles (2.0 for loss). Can he match (or beat) that performance?

On the year, Kuper has thrown 13 touchdowns while averaging 126 passing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after five games last season, he was only averaging 12.6 passing yards per game.
