Tahi Made His Presence Known in Bingham's 21-16 Victory
Bingham picked up their third consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Lincoln Tahi. Tahi was unstoppable, rushing for 117 yards, while also picking up 51 receiving yards and a touchdown. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his fourth straight game with at least 102 rushing yards.
Tahi and Bingham will host Corner Canyon at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The matchup will pit Tahi up against the Chargers' star rusher 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 Sets Career High in Rushing Yards
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.
If the past is any indication, Bingham could be in store for another big game when he takes on 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.

Riverton Gets a Boost from Neilson in 21-16 Loss
While Riverton might've come up empty on Friday, Andrew Neilson wasn't going down without a fight. Neilson turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 53 yards and a touchdown, while also throwing for 120 yards and a touchdown.
Neilson and Riverton will host 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?
