With a playoff game on the line, Helena rose to the challenge on Friday. They were the clear victor by a 34-12 margin over the Russell Rustlers. The Bengals might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won three games by 22 points or more this season.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Helena to victory, but perhaps none more so than Trygve Braun, who rushed for 80 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries. Braun's longest rush was for an impressive 69 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
Helena is on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five matchups, which provided a massive bump to their 5-5 record this season. Those good results were due in large part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 29.6 points per game. As for Russell, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 4-6.
Helena has already played their next contest, a 35-13 loss against Gallatin on the 8th. Russell does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
