Couldn’t be prouder of these guys, we didn’t play the way we wanted in this game but they will be able to look back with pride at what they accomplished. Who’ da thunk!!!!!

[Chuck Freeby Sports @ChuckFreeby]

If there was one question about @nilesvikingfb entering the season, it was how @BennettTalen would do at quarterback.

The senior has had nothing but answers, and his leadership is a big reason @scot_shawNHSfb’s squad is playing for a state title Friday.

[Chuck Freeby Sports @ChuckFreeby]

This trip to state for @nilesvikingfb started almost a decade ago with kids like @SamRucker14, @BennettTalen and @PaulHessIII who loved to play football. But to a man they said it would not have happened without @scot_shawNHSfb coming into their lives.

[Maxwell Harden @LPMaxwellHarden]

Niles QB Talen Bennett has been the maestro behind the Vikings' prolific flex-bone offense all season long.

The senior threw a TD pass and guided the Vikings to 8 scoring drives and 434 yards of offense in Saturday's win over South Christian.

[Michigan GAME NIGHT @MIgamenight]

🎙CALL OF THE GAME 🗣

In a game filled with highlights for @NilesAthletics, on 4th and goal from the 9 late in the 1st half @BennettTalen would find @brendenolsen22 for six!

This would be the only completion the team needed in the game, as they ran over South Chr 62-30.

[MHSAA @MHSAA]

🏈D4 FOOTBALL SEMIFINAL FINAL SCORE:
Niles - 62
GR South Christian - 30
@NilesAthletics @nilesvikingfb
The Vikings defeat South Christian and are headed to the Finals where they will face the Martians from Goodrich!

Conference Champs!!!!

[Chuck Freeby Sports @ChuckFreeby]

If you were expecting @nilesvikingfb to have a letdown after winning the Wolverine Conference in 2023, think again!

Riley Cowan, @BennettTalen, @SamRucker14 and @scot_shawNHSfb believe the Vikings may be even better now.
