Wray Wins Sixth-Straight Thanks to Samuel Meisner
Samuel Meisner's big game helped extend Wray's winning streak to six on Saturday. Meisner was dynamite, making ten total tackles (1.5 for loss).
Meisner might have his next game, a home matchup with Limon, circled on his calendar. When Meisner last faced the Badgers back in October of 2023, he made 16 total tackles.
Gamescore: 37.77
Big Game from Lousberg As Wiggins Won 27-6
Jayson Lousberg was a major factor in Wiggins's win over Yuma on Friday. Lousberg did his part (and then some), rushing for 139 yards and two touchdowns for the 'W'.
Yuma's probably not too fond of Lousberg given he always seems to get the better of them. When Lousberg last faced the Outlaws back in September of 2023, he rushed for 180 yards and two touchdowns.
Gamescore: 30.60
Yuma was sadly handed a loss on Friday, but Christian Thomson did his best to prevent it. Thomson was unstoppable, rushing for 46 yards and a touchdown, while also picking up 34 receiving yards.
This year, Thomson has run in 2 touchdowns while averaging 21.3 rushing yards per game.

He didn't just play on offense: he also picked up a sack and made eight total tackles.
This season, Mendez has run in 3 touchdowns while averaging 30.8 rushing yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he had one rushing touchdown.
