This past week was his best week yet. Against Milton Hershey, Saunders was 12-for-14 for 400-yards and seven touchdowns. While he may not be going up against the best of talent week in and week out, he’s been incredibly efficient for a freshman, completing 69.4% of his passes for 1,681-yards, 29 touchdowns, and zero interceptions. Just an amazing season so far out of him. <strong>QB [player_tooltip player_id="64005" first="Cadin" last="Olsen"] - Armstrong:</strong> [player_tooltip player_id="64005" first="Cadin" last="Olsen"] had one of his better weeks last weekend, unfortunately in a 41-27 loss to Highlands.
