The Middlesex High School Charger football team defeated the King & Queen Central Royal Tigers, 32-14, Thursday, Oct. 31, in Saluda and is now undefeated in district play.
The Chargers were paced Thursday by halfback JaQuan Griffin, who scored two touchdowns and has now registered 30 TDs over the 2024 season — a MHS school record. J. Griffin had already broken the MHS single game touchdown record with eight in a game earlier this season.
