Camden Bruns Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Friday, Rampart had to settle for second even though Camden Bruns put up the best numbers he has all season. Bruns forced a fumble and made 16 total tackles.
Bruns must have Vista Ridge'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 Bruns saw the Wolves), he picked up 0.5 sacks, forced a fumble, and made 11 total tackles (5.0 for loss).
Gamescore: 32.35
Jackson Schmadeka was a major factor in Air Academy's victory over Liberty on Thursday. Schmadeka turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 57 yards and a touchdown.
This season, Schmadeka has averaged 25.9 receiving yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 5.71 receiving yards per game.
