Brady Eichelberger Goes Supernova in O'neill Win
O'Neill picked up their ninth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Brady Eichelberger. Eichelberger was dynamite, rushing for 135 yards and two touchdowns on only nine carries.
Schuyler had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Eichelberger it was a similar story. Eichelberger rushed for 110 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries the last time he and the Warriors duked it out back in September of 2023.

A Season-Best Effort from Brenden Bolling Leads Pierce over Wayne
On Friday, Pierce got the W thanks in part to Brenden Bolling playing the best football he has all season. Bolling rushed for 83 yards and two touchdowns, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
The win snapped Pierce's losing streak at four games and leaves them with a 3-4 record. Bolling and Pierce will take on Lakeview at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 33.93
While Calvin Ankeny delivered a dominant effort on Friday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Wayne. Ankeny was dynamite, making nine total tackles.
Unfortunately for Pierce, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Ankeny. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Ankeny saw the Bluejays), he made 16 total tackles (2.0 for loss).
