The Choctawhatchee High School football team set a new school record for points scored during its 66-30 homecoming victory over South Walton High School on Friday night.

The Indians’ 66 points topped the previous school record of 63, which they had accomplished four times before, twice last season in 2022. It marked just the sixth time in Choctaw history the team scored 60 or more points:

1977 – Choctaw 63 vs. Southside (Selma Ala.) 0
1978 – Choctaw 63 vs. Rickards 0
2013 – Choctaw 60 vs. East Gadsden 0
2022 – Choctaw 63 vs. South Walton 27
2022 – Choctaw 63 vs. Mosley 34
2023 – Choctaw 66 vs. South Walton 30

Offensive Linebacker Tristan Jackson was named the school’s Athlete of the Week after recording two forced fumbles, one fumble return for a touchdown and 12 tackles against South Walton.

The Indians improved their record to 4-2 on the season with the win.
