The closest contest so far was a 28-14 victory last week over Spencer for the Warriors.

Junior WR Grant Whitcomb is coming on with (6.0) receptions for (119) yards and one score. Junior WR Jonathon Hope has secured (11) receptions for (115) yards and two scores.

Senior captain LB Zach Harpenau 5-11 (200) who is the heart and soul of the defense has a team high (22.0) tackles and (2.5) TFL. Thomas has (15.0) tackles and (6.0) TFL from his OLB position. Junior Max Aesoph has (13.0) stops and (3.0) TFL. Lester has contributed (14.0) tackles from his safety position.

Hibma has also rushed for (197) yards and (2) scores. The other key contributor in the running game is senior Joseph Molina 5-11 (190) has (281) yards and (2) touchdowns. Molina also has (9) receptions for (142) yards and (4) scores. Junior WR Braedon Perez-Heitbrink 6-1 (175) is a the playmaker on the outside with (7) catches for (219) yards and a score.

The defense which has allowed (22.0) points per game is led by senior LB Cody Sandbulte 6-3 (220) the tackle leader with (25.0) tackles and (6.0) TFL. Other key defenders include senior Jace Bradshaw with (17.0) stops and junior Ethan Bosma with (11.0) tackles and (4.0) TFL. The Warrior defense has combined for (8) interceptions.

SSI TOMORROWS HEADLINES TODAY: This game will serve as a nice measuring stick for the Warriors as their opponents they have defeated currently fashion a 5-11 overall record. The Warriors have had a nice balance of run and pass on offense with (703) passing yards and (760) rushing yards. The Crusaders should be able to slow the Warrior run game down and I look for them to have a good night in turnover margin and Thomas will have one big house call out of the backfield.
