Conway’s Ground Game Overwhelms Little Rock Christian on Halloween Night

Conway 55, Little Rock Christian 17
Conway’s ground game overwhelmed Little Rock Christian on Halloween night, grinding drives and breaking tackles until the Wampus Cats pulled away. The Warriors struck first—outside linebacker Rece Hall pounced on a loose ball in the end zone after safety Malachi Momphery jarred it free—then added a 47‑yard field goal from kicker Brody Bost. Conway answered with running back Trey Harris’s bruising runs and Amari Davis’s burst, including a 74‑yard sprint that flipped momentum.
Little Rock Christian settled behind quarterback Eli Robertson, who extended plays with his legs and found Conner Smith for a 23‑yard touchdown. Receiver Tristian Watson and receiver Mann Pickens moved the sticks, while linebacker DJ Williams delivered several drive‑stopping hits.
From there, Conway’s depth told. Harris finished with three rushing touchdowns, Davis added another in the third quarter, and receiver Carter Crow powered in from short range. Kicker Will Upton was steady with field goals of 26 and 29 yards. Conway’s front rotated fresh linemen and leaned on ball control to limit possessions.
Despite the margin, the Warriors competed throughout—creating the game’s first turnover and giving Robertson time to push the ball downfield. Bost’s leg flipped field position; Momphery and cornerback Connor Davis were active in the back end. With the regular‑season finale against Pulaski Academy ahead, Little Rock Christian remains positioned for postseason play.
Conway stayed perfect in league play and showcased a backfield that can score quickly or grind clock. Both defenses flashed early, but Conway’s balance and pace controlled the second half with authority.
