On Friday, Wells faced Owyhee in a battle between two of the state's top teams. The Wells Leopards blew past the Owyhee Braves, posting a 46-0 victory at home. Considering the Leopards have won three games by more than 31 points this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.

The win made it two in a row for Wells and bumps their season record up to 3-4. As for Owyhee, their loss was their seventh straight on the road dating back to last season, which dropped their record down to 1-5.
Both squads will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. Wells will venture away from home to take on Virginia City at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday. Wells is strutting in with some offensive muscle as they've averaged 34 points per game this season.
