Blake Welchert Turns in Season-Best Effort
Fort Calhoun was led to victory by Blake Welchert, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Welchert rushed for 142 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest rush was for an incredible 87 yards.
Welchert must have Concordia's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Welchert rushed for 90 yards and two touchdowns the last time he and the Mustangs duked it out back in October of 2023.
