A Season-Best Effort from Bronson Evans Leads Corner Canyon over Copper Hills
On Friday, Corner Canyon got the W thanks in part to Bronson Evans playing the best football he has all season. Evans threw for 282 yards and three touchdowns while completing 78.6% of his passes.
Corner Canyon pushed their record up to 7-1 with the win, which was their 12th straight at home dating back to last season. Evans and Corner Canyon will square off against Bingham at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Tahi Posts Huge Game in 21-16 Victory
Bingham picked up their third consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Lincoln Tahi. Tahi was dynamite, rushing for 117 yards, while also picking up 51 receiving yards and a touchdown. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his fourth straight game with at least 102 rushing yards.
Tahi will have a chance to log another big game when he takes on Corner Canyon on Friday. The game will pit Tahi up against the Chargers' star RB Bryton Brady. Will the contest be decided in the trenches? We'll have our answer very soon.

Wyatt Bingham Has Career Rushing Day
Wyatt Bingham posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Friday. He threw for 162 yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 67 yards.
Bingham is probably looking forward to his next game, a home matchup against Riverton on Friday. When Bingham last faced the Silverwolves back in October of 2023, he threw for 378 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 11.5 yards per attempt.

Riverton Gets a Boost from Neilson in 21-16 Defeat
Riverton was sadly handed a loss on Friday, but Andrew Neilson did his best to prevent it. Neilson was unstoppable, rushing for 53 yards and a touchdown, while also throwing for 120 yards and a touchdown.
Neilson and Riverton will be playing at home against Mountain Ridge at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Silverwolves had to take a loss when they last met the Sentinels, but Neilson had little to do with the loss: he rushed for 66 yards and a touchdown on only five carries. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
