Chase Campbell Sets Career High in Rushing Yards
Frenship was led to victory by Chase Campbell, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Campbell picked up 68 receiving yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 104 yards and a touchdown on only ten carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest reception was for an impressive 58 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per catch total.
The win was the fifth in a row for Frenship, bringing their record for this year to 5-1. Campbell's next contest is against Midland Legacy on Friday, where he'll look to repeat that solid effort.

Another Game with at Least 122 Rushing Yards from Elijah Mccoy

Stroman Bridges Goes Supernova in Midland Defeat
Another Midland player making an appearance on this list is Stroman Bridges. He rushed for 116 yards and three touchdowns on only ten carries, and also threw for 31 yards and a touchdown.
Frenship's probably not too fond of Bridges given he always seems to get the better of them. When Bridges last faced the Tigers back in October of 2023, he rushed for 209 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries.
