Bronson Evans Turns in Season-Best Effort

Tahi Made His Presence Known in Bingham's 21-16 Victory
Lincoln Tahi's big game helped extend Bingham's winning streak to three on Friday. Tahi did his part (and then some), rushing for 117 yards, while also picking up 51 receiving yards and a touchdown for the 'W'. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his fourth straight game with at least 102 rushing yards.
Tahi and Bingham will be playing at home against Corner Canyon at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The contest will pit Tahi up against the Chargers' star RB Bryton Brady. 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.

Wyatt Bingham Has Career Rushing Day
Wyatt Bingham posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Friday. He threw for 162 yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 67 yards.
Bingham is probably looking forward to his next game, a home matchup against Riverton on Friday. Bingham threw for 378 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 11.5 yards per attempt the last time he and the Silverwolves duked it out back in October of 2023.

Neilson Came Up Big in Riverton's 21-16 Defeat
While Riverton might've come up empty on Friday, Andrew Neilson wasn't going down without a fight. Nobody could stop Neilson as he rushed for 53 yards and a touchdown, and also threw for 120 yards and a touchdown.
Neilson and Riverton will be playing in front of their home fans against Mountain Ridge at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Silverwolves had to take a loss when they last met the Sentinels, but Neilson had little to do with the loss: he rushed for 66 yards and a touchdown on only five carries. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
