Joshua Bauman Game Report: @ Croatan

Joshua Bauman, West Carteret's leading rusher, solidified his role on Friday. Bauman made a splash, rushing for 95 yards and one TD, while also picking up 96 receiving yards. He was up against Croatan and has quite the history against that squad, as he also had a great game the last time he faced them back in November of 2024. Bauman was no stranger to the big play, lighting up the secondary with a catch that went for 53 yards.

Looking ahead, Bauman and West Carteret will challenge Northwood at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. Coming in off a loss to Southwestern Randolph in their last outing, the Chargers are looking for some redemption. Will the Patriots have enough to fend them off?
