Osceola didn't have too much breathing room in their matchup against Northeast when the teams last played back in September of 2024, but they still walked away with a 19-13 victory. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was the Vikings' Keatin Emener, who rushed for 75 yards and a pair of TDs on only eight carries, and also threw for 126 yards on 14 of 23 attempts.
