Tyler Cone left no doubt this past week.

The senior quarterback completed 5 of 8 passes for 97 yards and two touchdowns, accumulated 180 yards and four touchdowns on 17 carries and recorded an interception, a tackle and a pass breakup on defense last Friday night as No. 6 Good Hope rolled past Hatton 42-12 in the first round of the Class 4A playoffs to
improve to 10-1 this season.

Cone’s performance helped the Raiders advance to the second round for the fourth time in seven seasons.
