Quarterback Zach Yeager added an 8-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Rio Sanders late in the second quarter for the Polars (5-0), who were ranked third in the latest Class 2A poll. Defensive lineman Quientrail Jamison-Travis recovered a fumble and returned it to the Millers’ 26-yard line to set up that score.

North ran the ball almost exclusively in the second half, as Yeager dealt with what coach Charles Adams described as a sore arm.

“We knew that being up and having a good defense, running the ball was probably more appropriate,” he said.

Jamar Nelson forced and recovered Kamara’s second-quarter fumble for the Millers (3-2).
