Great Bend Wins Sixth-Straight Thanks to Ian Premer
Ian Premer was instrumental in extending Great Bend's winning streak to six on Friday. Premer was unstoppable, picking up 155 receiving yards and a touchdown. His longest reception was for an incredible 71 yards.
Premer and Great Bend will host Hays at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Panthers had to take a loss when they last met the Indians, but Premer had little to do with the loss: he picked up 91 receiving yards and a touchdown. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
