Nate Luzadder Turns in Season-Best Effort
On Friday, Frankton got the W thanks in part to Nate Luzadder playing the best football he has all season. Luzadder rushed for 279 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 12.1 yards per carry, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
If the past is any indication, Luzadder could be in store for another big game when he takes on Elwood on Friday. Luzadder rushed for 182 yards and five touchdowns while picking up 10.7 yards per carry the last time he and the Panthers duked it out back in September of 2023.
