Cards end district season 4-0 with road win at Russell County and enter the bye week with an 8-1 mark, as the Lakers drop to 2-6 overall and 0-3 in district. Wayne totals 397 yards of offense and limits Russell to 122 yards of offense on 58 plays. Senior running back German Ruiz rushes 8 times for 135 yards with 3 TDs, while Aubrey Weaver totals 8 catches for 125 yards and Lorenzo Linsey finishes 14/24 passing for 178 yards with 2 TDs in the win.
Next up for Wayne County is a bye then Madison Southern, while the Lakers will have to beat Clay County to advance to the postseason. Wayne has won three in a row over Russell County and now trails the series, that dates back to 1969, 17-20. Good Luck Russell and Go Cards!!!!
