Roundup
East (5-5) continued its dominance in the long-standing rivalry with Highland (3-6), claiming a sixth straight victory with a 40-28 win in a Region 6 showdown. The Leopards broke open a tied first quarter with a crucial 16-point third quarter, highlighted by Marcus Loertscher's back-to-back punt return touchdowns of 60 and 70 yards. Highland tried to rally in the fourth quarter, closing the gap with an 80-yard touchdown pass from Manasa Pela to Charlie McConkie with just under three minutes left, but it wasn't enough to overcome the deficit. Nasio Otukolo sealed the win for East with a 48-yard touchdown run with 2:43 remaining. Highland's Manasa Pela accounted for three touchdowns, but the Rams couldn’t capitalize on his efforts.
