5A Front Range - North Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played on Thursday and Friday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Jordan Rechel Delivers Best Effort of Season
Jordan Rechel produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Fairview to the win on Thursday. Rechel rushed for 93 yards and three touchdowns on only seven carries, and also picked up 119 receiving yards and a touchdown. He got the majority of those receiving yards when he pulled down a pass and took off for a gain of 68 yards.
Fort Collins had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Rechel it was a similar story. Rechel picked up 153 receiving yards and two touchdowns the last time he and the Lambkins duked it out back in October of 2023.
