Griffin Novacek Goes Supernova in Kearney Victory
Kearney picked up their fifth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Griffin Novacek. Columbus had no answer to Novacek as he threw for 170 yards and two touchdowns on only 11 passes, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground.
Kearney's win was their fourth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 7-1. Novacek and Kearney will head out to face off against Bryan at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

A Season-Best Effort from Samuel Nachtigal Leads Kearney over Columbus
Samuel Nachtigal produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Kearney to the win on Friday. Nachtigal rushed for 95 yards and two touchdowns on only five carries. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 72-yard run.
On the year, Nachtigal has run in 4 touchdowns while averaging 61 rushing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after eight games last season, he was only averaging 6.88 rushing yards per game.

Millard North had to settle for second on Friday, but Caden Vermaas sure wasn't going down easily. Despite the defeat, Vermaas was still balling out as he made six total tackles.
On the season, Vermaas has averaged 2.9 total tackles per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 7.13 receiving yards per game. This year he is averaging 43.25 receiving yards.
Gamescore: 28.72
Henry Rehberg Turns in Season-Best Performance
Sadly, Henry Rehberg posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Millard North over Omaha Central on Friday. Rehberg picked up two sacks and made ten total tackles. He is becoming a predictor of Millard North's success: when he posts at least one sack the team is 2-1 (and 2-3 when he doesn't).
On the season, Rehberg has averaged 4 total tackles per game and for the season has 5 sacks.
