Among his targets, Deion Hollis stood out as the top receiver, recording 65 receiving yards and scoring a touchdown. Hunter O’Neal also contributed on the ground with 58 rushing yards.

Both teams exhibit similar defensive capabilities, with Newberry allowing an average of 14.2 points per game and Swansea permitting 13.8 points. The matchup promises to be competitive as Newberry aims to maintain its undefeated streak.
After experiencing a second-round playoff loss last season, the Bulldogs are returning with a robust roster, aiming for playoff success this year. With eight starters from the offense and six from the defense back on the squad, Newberry’s expectations are high. Senior quarterback Kenton Caldwell will lead the team for his third year, supported by key returning players such as tight end Jamel Howse Jr., wide receiver Cash Brown, and running back BJ Jones. Although the team will miss linebacker Jared Acosta’s leadership, they possess an array of defensive talent.
Last season, Newberry previously finished with a record of 7-4 and secured the 4-AAA region title. Current season predictions suggest the Bulldogs could achieve an 8-2 record and finish first in their region, with hopes of advancing deep into the playoffs, which are set to start on November 7th.
