Carrollton moves to 8-0 after big win over Routt, awaits Camp Point Central

The No. 5 Carrollton Hawks are now a game away from finishing the regular season with an undefeated record as they took down the Routt Rockets 64-13 in Carrollton this past Friday night.

Byron Holmes rushed for 115 yards on 16 carries and managed to find the end zone five times. Four of his scores came on rushing touchdowns and the last one was on a 25-yard interception return. Holmes now sits atop the WIVC with 14 rushing touchdowns.
