Jayden is a Junior running back / linebacker for the Bearcats. He had 1 receiving touchdown and 1 rushing
touchdown with over 100 all- purpose yards on offense and 2 tackles for loss, defensively. His efforts helped lead the
Bearcats to a comfortable 38-14 victory over the Panthers. Mena’s off to a great start, at 2-0 for the year!
Jayden is the son of Walter and Misty Felix and is one of eight children, having 2 brothers and 5 sisters.

to continue to play football at the college level, as he pursues a degree in Accounting.

Mena lost a close game to the Trojans last year and Jayden and the Bearcats will be up for a little payback come Friday night.

Bureau Insurance agent, Mitch Sikes.
