Another Game with at Least Three Passing Touchdowns from Colton Klein
Swan Valley was led to victory by Colton Klein, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Klein wasn't messing around, throwing for 370 yards and five touchdowns while completing 88.9% of his passes. The contest was his third straight with three or more passing touchdowns dating back to last season. Swan Valley is 4-1 when Klein posts 250 or more passing yards, but 1-2 otherwise.
Alma had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Klein it was a similar story. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Klein saw the Panthers), he threw for 147 yards and four touchdowns on only 11 passes, and also rushed for 67 yards on only nine carries.

Delisle Came Up Big in Swan Valley's 45-13 Win
Cal Delisle was instrumental in extending Swan Valley's winning streak to five on Friday. Delisle did his part (and then some), picking up 138 receiving yards and two touchdowns for the 'W'. He is becoming a predictor of Swan Valley's success: when he posts at least two receiving touchdowns the team is undefeated (and 2-3 when he doesn't).
Alma had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Delisle it was a similar story. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Delisle saw the Panthers), he picked up 124 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
