OMAHA -- The Paul Pewitt Brahmas overcame a strong rushing performance from Garrett Barton in a 56-25 win over New Diana on Friday night.

Barton rushed for 136 yards and three touchdowns on 17 carries and hauled in a 60-yard scoring reception for New Diana (4-3, 1-3 in District 9-2A Division II), but it wasn't enough to keep up with Paul Pewitt (4-3, 2-2).

Brandon Wesley turned in the Eagles' best defensive performance with 14 tackles (four loss) and a sack.

New Diana hosts Linden-Kildare, while Paul Pewitt travels to Ore City next Friday night.
