Nelson is going to be a big bright spot for Borah as the senior is returning from a major injury and might just be what the doctor ordered for the Lions. Nelson was able to run through and around the Capital defense during the game with his unique blend of size and speed. A big back with tremendous power but can really stretch the defense with his speed, Nelson was able to hurt Capital in the return game as well with a 68 yard kick return. The senior is glad to be back on the field but Borah is ecstatic that they have such a stellar back.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"Alex Hess","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"5'9u0022","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"2408","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_1_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Hess was another big time player this week as the Brave were able to beat Timberline due to the legs of Hess. With two 56 yard touchdown runs, Hess was able to show off his speed as he ran away from everyone during the week as he went untouched. Hess has great straight line speed but also has enough wiggle in his game to make defenders miss all over the field. With the Brave coming off a season where they started 2-0 before hitting a rough stretch it looks like Hess is going to be one of the players to watch this season.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='1135843' first='Jared' last='Payne'] ","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"5'10u0022","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"2409","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"Columbia ","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_2_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Payne had a huge week where he was the biggest star for Columbia verse their out of state opponent. Playing a team from Nevada all Payne did was throw for 161 yards and three TDs, and ran for 72 yards and another score. Using his dual threat ability Payne is going to be able to be run and throw against everyone the Wildcats come across this season.
