Ark Valley-Chisholm Trail Division II Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Friday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Carter Pabst Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Carter Pabst produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Eisenhower to the win on Friday. Pabst picked up 154 receiving yards and five touchdowns. Thanks to that strong showing, he's now averaging 2.3 receiving touchdowns per game.
Arkansas City's probably not too fond of Pabst given he always seems to get the better of them. Pabst picked up 129 receiving yards and three touchdowns the last time he and the Bulldogs duked it out back in October of 2023.

Derek Morgan Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Friday, Eisenhower got the W thanks in part to Derek Morgan playing the best football he has all season. Morgan threw for 240 yards and five touchdowns while completing 86.7% of his passes, and also rushed for 36 yards. The performance marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in November of 2023. He is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in the last seven games he's played dating back to last season.
Morgan must have Arkansas City's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Morgan saw the Bulldogs), he threw for 282 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 14.1 yards per attempt.
Gamescore: 45.10
Erik Olivas Turns in Season-Best Effort
Goddard was led to victory by Erik Olivas, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Olivas rushed for 164 yards and two touchdowns on only nine carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 64 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
The win (which was Goddard's fourth in a row) raised their record to 5-1. Olivas and Goddard will face off against Arkansas City at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Archibald Posts Huge Game in 31-7 Win
Maddox Archibald was a major factor in Andover Central's win over Salina Central on Friday. Archibald did his part (and then some), rushing for 147 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 8.6 yards per carry for the 'W'. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 71-yard run.
Andover Central's victory bumped their record up to 5-1. A feisty cat fight will be fought when Jaguars dukes it out withEisenhower at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Cooper Reves Rounds Out Top Five
Rounding off our Top Five is Cooper Reves of Salina Central. Reves' rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 162 rushing yards dating back to last season. He also rushed for 216 rushing yards, which is notable because Salina Central is 2-1 when he posts at least 80 rushing yards, but 1-2 otherwise.
Salina Central's defeat dropped their record down to 3-3. Reves and Salina Central will venture away from home to face off against Andover at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
