A Season-Best Effort from Trajan Frasier Leads Arapahoe over Smoky Hill
Trajan Frasier produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Arapahoe to the win on Friday. Frasier rushed for 119 yards and two touchdowns on only eight carries. He has become a key player for Arapahoe: the team is undefeated when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns, but 2-3 otherwise.
Frasier might have his next game, a home matchup with Cherokee Trail, circled on his calendar. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Frasier saw the Cougars), he rushed for 100 yards and five touchdowns.
