Wolf rushed for 216 yards and four touchdowns on only seven carries, and also threw for 57 yards and two touchdowns. The performance once again pushed his average rushing yardage north of 100 yards per game (119). Those 216 rushing yards gave him a new career-high.

Reimers Made His Presence Known in Palmer's 36-28 Victory
Gatlin Reimers continued his hot streak on Friday by dropping his third-straight game (dating back to last season) with at least two rushing touchdowns. He made 19 total tackles (1.0 for loss).
Chambers/Wheeler Central's probably not too fond of Reimers given he always seems to get the better of them. Reimers made 26 total tackles the last time he and the Renegades duked it out back in September of 2023.

Cooper Pokorny Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Chambers/Wheeler Central was sadly handed a defeat on Friday, but Cooper Pokorny did his best to prevent it. Pokorny was excellent, rushing for 102 yards and a touchdown, while also picking up 49 receiving yards and a touchdown. The performance once again pushed his average rushing yardage north of 100 yards per game (100.2).

Chambers/Wheeler Central is on a four-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 2-4. Pokorny and Chambers/Wheeler Central will venture away from home to square off against Burwell at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
