Another Game with at Least Three Passing Touchdowns from Colton Klein
Swan Valley was led to victory by Colton Klein, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Klein wasn't messing around, throwing for 370 yards and five touchdowns while completing 88.9% of his passes. The matchup was his third straight with three or more passing touchdowns dating back to last season. Swan Valley is 4-1 when Klein posts 250 or more passing yards, but 1-2 otherwise.
Unfortunately for Alma, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Klein. Klein threw for 147 yards and four touchdowns on only 11 passes, and also rushed for 67 yards on only nine carries the last time he and the Panthers duked it out back in October of 2023.
