Vincent Hoover Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Friday, Juniata Valley got the W thanks in part to Vincent Hoover playing the best football he has all season. Hoover rushed for 295 yards and four touchdowns, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, forcing a fumble and making eight total tackles.
On the year, Hoover has run in 6 touchdowns while averaging 63 rushing yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 0.14 rushing yards per game.

If the past is any indication, Reifer could be in store for another big game when he takes on West Branch on Friday. When Reifer last faced the Warriors back in October of 2023, he rushed for 96 yards and a touchdown on only seven carries.
