Pick-Six by Holli Daily Highlights Mizfits’ Grit
Music City’s only score came courtesy of defensive standout Holli Daily, who read the quarterback perfectly and returned an interception for a touchdown in the second quarter. The pick-six gave the Mizfits a burst of energy and proved once again that their defense can produce big plays in big moments.
Twenty-Player Defensive Effort Shows Depth and Heart
Perhaps the most impressive stat of the night? Twenty different Mizfits recorded at least one defensive stat—tackles, assists, pass breakups, or turnovers. That’s not just a defense—it’s a full team effort. From the D-line to the secondary, every unit got involved, showing depth, resilience, and a growing chemistry that will only improve as the season goes on.
Richmond Controls the Pace
Richmond, now 2–0, continued their efficient play on both sides of the ball. Their balanced offense and disciplined defense allowed them to control time of possession and limit Music City’s opportunities. With back-to-back wins, the Black Widows are building momentum early in their Division 3 campaign.
What the Numbers Say
According to HostedSports, Richmond remains one of the most complete teams in the WFA this season. But the Mizfits’ defense—backed by contributions from 20 different players—has become one of Division 3’s most determined and active units. With continued growth on offense, Music City could quickly become a dangerous contender down the stretch.
Next Up
The Mizfits will look to regroup and refocus as they move deeper into their Division 3 schedule. With leadership from players like Holli Daily and a defense that refuses to quit, the team has a strong foundation to build on.
