C1 District 3 Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Friday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Kip Brigham Goes Supernova in Wahoo Win
Kip Brigham's big game helped extend Wahoo's winning streak to seven on Friday. Nobody could stop Brigham as he rushed for 183 yards and six touchdowns on only seven carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 68 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
Brigham and Wahoo will take on Fort Calhoun at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Brigham will face off against Kaiden Rodriguez, the Pioneers' star rusher. 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.

Blake Welchert Delivers Best Performance of Season
Blake Welchert produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Fort Calhoun to the win on Friday. Welchert rushed for 142 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 87-yard run.
Unfortunately for Concordia, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Welchert. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Welchert saw the Mustangs), he rushed for 90 yards and two touchdowns.
