Ark Valley-Chisholm Trail Division II Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Friday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Kaiden Stroot Delivers Best Effort of Season
Kaiden Stroot produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Goddard to the win on Friday. Stroot rushed for 182 yards and three touchdowns on only 14 carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest rush was for an impressive 64 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
The win (which was Goddard's fifth in a row) raised their record to 6-1. Stroot and Goddard will head out on the road to take on Salina Central at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 48.80
Pabst Posts Huge Game in 27-26 Defeat
Carter Pabst continued his hot streak on Friday by dropping his third-straight game with at least two receiving touchdowns. He picked up 145 receiving yards and three touchdowns. He really caught the secondary sleeping when he pulled down a catch that went for 79 yards.
With the loss, Eisenhower broke their six-game winning streak and moved their record to 6-1. Pabst and Eisenhower will be playing at home against Northwest at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Andover Central Gets a Boost from Archibald in 27-26 Win

On the year, Archibald has caught 2 touchdowns while averaging 24.3 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 73.86 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 113.57 rushing yards.
Gamescore: 26.38
Makai Tagatac Dazzles in Eisenhower Loss
The second Eisenhower player making an appearance here is Makai Tagatac, and for good reason. He made 12 total tackles (4.0 for loss) and defended a pass. He is on a roll when it comes to total tackles, as he's now made six or more in the last four games he's played.
