Eastern Randolph and Randleman continued on their unbeaten paths with their showdown looming in a couple of weeks. Meanwhile, Asheboro keeps cranking out the offense but can’t register the Ws. 

Here’s a recap of last week’s action:

Kirkpatrick finished 9-of-11 for 164 yards, his other touchdown pass going to Brayden Gladden. Daylan Atkins had 4 carries for 74 yards and a touchdown. Tristan Chriscoe also had a rushing touchdown.
