It was an underclassman who stole the show on Friday as Connor Thorp came into the game with something to prove. St. Paul Lutheran had no answer to Thorp as he rushed for 144 yards and three touchdowns on only 12 carries. With that strong performance, Thorp is now averaging an impressive 104.5 rushing yards per game.
Thorp and Northwest will be defending their home-field for the first time this season Northwest goes up against Concordia at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Concordia will enter the matchup having just beaten Slater, so Northwest will have to guard against a team looking to keep the ball rolling.
