CLEVELAND, Tenn. — If Friday was any indication of what Walker Valley could look like for the rest of the season, the Valley could be rocking this November.

With Dosen Stum back in the saddle behind center, the Mustangs’ tandem of Roman Eulo and Javen Hall ran unbridled against rival East Hamilton to earn a 28-17 home win in a TSSAA Region 4-5A matchup.

Walker Valley amassed 348 yards of offense, including 219 rushing. Eulo had eight carries for 108 yards, including a 65-yard jaunt down the home sideline early in the contest and a short 10-yard scamper to close the book on the Mustangs’ scoring.

Eulo nearly had a third score on a 61-yard burst in the second half had it not been for a holding penalty against Walker Valley (6-2, 3-1).
