Montgomery Catholic won its 17th straight Tuesday, beating Mobile Christian in the second round of the AHSAA playoffs. Mobile Christian dropped into coverage and kept spies on senior quarterback Hayden Fitts, who likes to scramble or draw the defense in before throwing to a teammate. Maggie McNeely and Avery Sadler scored touchdowns on Catholic's campus.
