In a Week 1 win over Merkel, Stamford quarterback Peyton Bevel threw four touchdown passes but was edged out for our Big Country Preps Player of the Week award. 

Friday night in Roscoe, however, he returned to throw six scoring passes and account for a seventh touchdown on the ground in a 53-29 win that saw the Bulldogs improve to 2-0. 

The second time was the charm.
