Seven sacks in a single game is the kind of number that makes people check the stat sheet twice. Thomas wreaked havoc in the backfield all night, and Liberty came away with the victory against a Frenship squad that plays out of Wolfforth, just west of town on Loop 289.

Over in Shallowater, quarterback Logan Winn had a night of his own. He completed 20 of 34 passes for 347 yards and four touchdown throws, then added 76 rushing yards and another score on eight carries. That's five total touchdowns in a win over Seminole.

For folks watching prep football across the South Plains this fall, Week 2 made clear that the talent in this region runs deep.
