Braden Holthaus Delivers Electric Performance Vs Bureau Valley
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Friday Braden Holthaus stepped things up a notch to give Macomb the 'W'. Nobody could stop Holthaus as he rushed for 81 yards and a touchdown on only eight carries, and also threw for 283 yards and a touchdown.
If the past is any indication, Holthaus could be in store for another big game when he takes on Havana on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Holthaus saw the Ducks), he threw for 291 yards and three touchdowns on only 15 passes, and also rushed for 40 yards and a touchdown.
