RB Kaden Brink has rushed for 946 yards and 9TDs in 7 games and is averaging nearly 140 yards per game. Caleb Leisenring has rushed for 685 yards and 8TDs.

IT’S GAME DAY as we roll into the second round of the 3A state playoffs. This will be a tradition-rich matchup from two of Arkansas’ more storied programs as your Colts host the Rison Wildcats at The TEZ. The Colts reached this round after mercy-ruling Fouke last Friday, 35-7. QB Cavonta Washington put up 409 yards of offense and was responsible for 6TDs in that game. The senior has thrown for 2,244 yards and 34TDs and has rushed for 902 yards and 12TDs. This has been one of Rivercrest’s best receiver groups. That group is made up of Buddah Harris (912yds 12TDs), Jayden Young (605yds 12TDs), Jakavion Williams (454yds 7TDs), and Keiran Morris (412yds 5TDs). Defensively the Colts are led by Young (67 tackles, 6INTs), Andrew Lomack (65 tackles, 15TFL), and Nolan Williams (65 tackles). Rivercrest’s tradition isn’t rivaled by many schools in the state, but Rison is one that can. The Wildcats boast one of 3A’s best rushing attacks led by RBs Chandler and Christian Reeves along with QB Kyson Walker. A big Rison offensive line helps pave the way for a physical Wildcat offense. Rison reached this round after blasting Walnut Ridge last week, 49-21. The Wildcat defense is fast and physical as well. This will be the first meeting between these schools and it’s shaping up to be a great one. Matchups like these is what Arkansas high school football is all about. Bundle up and make plans to join us at The TEZ to cheer on the red and gray. GO COLTS!

His receiving targets are led by junior WR Buddah Harris who has 829 yards and 11TDs. The talented group of junior Jayden Young (over 1,300 all-purpose yards and 17TDs), senior Jakavion Williams (458yds 7TDs), and senior Keiran Morris (296yds 5TDs). Senior DT Andrew Lomack leads the Colt defense with 63 tackles and 13 TFLs along with Young (62 tackles 5INTs) and senior Nolan Williams (61 tackles). Fouke is the 4 seed out of the always tough 3A-7 conference. The Panthers are 7-3 overall after winning a shootout last week 55-53 over Smackover.

LBs Chris Sherman, Jackson McMurry, and DL Dakota Escobar lead the Panther defense. The Panthers are on a 3 game winning streak and have averaged 59 points per game over that span. This will be the first meeting between these schools. Bundle up and make plans to join us at The TEZ to cheer on the red and gray. GO COLTS!
