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!
A Season-Best Performance from Kaiden Stroot Leads Goddard over Arkansas City
Kaiden Stroot produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Goddard to the win on Friday. Stroot rushed for 182 yards and three touchdowns on only 14 carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest rush was for an impressive 64 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
The win was the fifth in a row for Goddard, bringing their record for this year to 6-1. Stroot and Goddard are taking a road trip to face off against Salina Central at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Big Game from Pabst As Eisenhower Fell 27-26
Carter Pabst continued his hot streak on Friday by dropping his third-straight game with at least two receiving touchdowns. He picked up 145 receiving yards and three touchdowns. He really caught the secondary sleeping when he pulled down a catch that went for 79 yards.
Eisenhower moved to 6-1 with that defeat, which also ended their six-game winning streak. Pabst and Eisenhower will host Northwest at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
