Uriah Tenette Delivers Best Effort of Season

Another Game with at Least 108 Rushing Yards from Kaleb Dekens
On Friday, Bradshaw Mountain got the W thanks in part to Kaleb Dekens playing the best football he has all season. Dekens' rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 108 rushing yards dating back to last season. He also put in work on the defensive side of the ball, forcing a fumble, making 12 total tackles, and defending a pass.
The win (which was Bradshaw Mountain's fifth in a row) raised their record to 5-2. Dekens and Bradshaw Mountain will welcome Prescott at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday.

Brayden Munday Turns in Season-Best Performance
Bradshaw Mountain was led to victory by Brayden Munday, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Munday rushed for 32 yards and two touchdowns, and also picked up 35 receiving yards.
Munday must have Mingus's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Munday saw the Marauders), he picked up 35 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 80 yards.

A Season-Best Effort from Reighns Stokes Leads Mingus over Bradshaw Mountain
Mingus came up short on Friday despite Reighns Stokes delivering his best game to date. Stokes rushed for 78 yards and a touchdown, and also threw for 177 yards and two touchdowns.
Stokes and Mingus will square off against Coconino at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Stokes will face off against Colton Buckingham, the Panthers' star quarterback. With so much talent on the field, fans are surely in for an exciting game. The only thing left to see is who brings home the W.

Adam Lloyd and Co. Win Fifth in a Row
Adam Lloyd was instrumental in extending Prescott's winning streak to five on Thursday. Flagstaff had no answer to Lloyd as he made six total tackles (2.0 for loss).
For the year, Lloyd has averaged 6.9 total tackles per game. It gets even more impressive: after seven games last season, he had one rushing touchdown. This year he is already up to six.
