Platteview was sadly handed a defeat on Friday, but Reiman Zebert did his best to prevent it. Zebert turned in nothing short of a gem, picking up 17 receiving yards and a touchdown, while also rushing for 32 yards.
If the past is any indication, Zebert could be in store for another big game when he takes on Lincoln Christian on Friday. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Zebert saw the Crusaders), he picked up 131 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
