C1 District 3 Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Friday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Kip Brigham Delivers Electric Effort Vs Logan View/Scribner-Snyder
Wahoo picked up their seventh consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Kip Brigham. Logan View/Scribner-Snyder had no answer to Brigham as he rushed for 183 yards and six touchdowns on only seven carries. Brigham's longest rush was for an impressive 68 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
Wahoo pushed their record up to 7-0 with the win, which was their tenth straight at home dating back to last season. Brigham and Wahoo will get to enjoy the win for a while: their next game is against Concordia at 7:00 p.m. on October 25th.

Blake Welchert Turns in Season-Best Performance
Fort Calhoun was led to victory by Blake Welchert, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Welchert rushed for 142 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 87-yard run.
Concordia's probably not too fond of Welchert given he always seems to get the better of them. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Welchert saw the Mustangs), he rushed for 90 yards and two touchdowns.

Bohlen Came Up Big in Douglas County West's 14-8 Win
Kelan Bohlen posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Friday. He rushed for 110 yards on only nine carries, and also threw for 90 yards and two touchdowns.
On the year, Bohlen has thrown 13 touchdowns while averaging 141.3 passing yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 5.57 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 46.29 rushing yards.

Levi Lasher Sets Career High in Rushing Yards
On Friday, Fort Calhoun got the W thanks in part to Levi Lasher playing the best football he has all season. Lasher rushed for 131 yards and two touchdowns on only 13 carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest rush was for an impressive 54 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
Lasher and Fort Calhoun will get to enjoy the win for a while: their next game is against Douglas County West at 7:00 p.m. on October 25th. The contest will pit Lasher up against the Falcon's star quarterback Kelan Bohlen. With so much talent on the field, fans are surely in for an exciting game. The only thing left to see is who brings home the W.

Adam Elofson Dazzles in Fort Calhoun Win

The match will pit Elofson up against the Falcon's star QB Kelan Bohlen. With so much talent on the field, fans are surely in for an exciting game.
