Meanwhile, Elbert took their game on Friday with ease, bagging a 48-12 victory over Front Range Christian. The win made it back-to-back victories for the Bulldogs.
One reason for the win was Elbert's imposing defense, which managed to get into the backfield for five sacks. In that department, Jeremiah LaChausse was the leader with four. He is also on a roll when it comes to total tackles, as he's now made six or more in each of the last five games he's played dating back to last season. Elbert received some extra help from Cole Nay, whose fumble return for a touchdown made for one of the most unforgettable moments.
Elbert's win bumped their record up to 3-1. As for Calhan, the victory got them back to even at 2-2.
Calhan didn't have too much breathing room in their matchup against Elbert when the teams last played back in November of 2024, but they still walked away with a 48-44 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for Calhan since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
