Lucas Folau Turns in Season-Best Performance
On Friday, Marshfield had to settle for second even though Lucas Folau put up the best numbers he has all season. Folau wasn't messing around, picking up three sacks, forcing two fumbles, and making six total tackles (4.0 for loss). The match was his third straight with six or more total tackles dating back to last season.
If history really does repeat itself, Folau might just drop another big game when he faces off against Ashland on Friday. When Folau last faced the Grizzlies back in October of 2023, he picked up two sacks, forced a fumble, and made five total tackles.
