Bastrop found a leader in Weston Nielsen as the team took down McCallum on Thursday. Nielsen made a splash, throwing for 314 yards and four touchdowns while completing 77.8% of his passes, and also rushing for 40 yards. He played a big game the last time he faced McCallum back in September of 2024, so the team probably should've seen him coming.
Nielsen and Bastrop will get to enjoy the win for a while: their next game is against Pflugerville Connally at 7:30 p.m. on October 9. Nielsen will face off against Jase Watkins, the Cougars' star QB. These two stars should make plenty of fireworks, so fans can expect an exciting show. Which one brings home the W? There's only one way to know for sure.
