The Vikings suffered another slow start, falling 41-20 to Elkhart Lake-Glenbeulah on 105.1 The GOAT. The Vikings quickly found themselves down 21-0 after Resorters quarterback Cole Wagner connected with Brennan Goble for a 31-yard touchdown pass and Jack McKibben for a 45-yard score before Goble took a Luke Pelkey interception the other way for a touchdown. The Vikings' offense found life in the second quarter when Landen Pelkey scampered into the end zone from 40 yards out to make it 21-8. A combined sack by Wyatt Bultman and Xavier Gaddes set up the Vikings with good field position, setting the stage for Luke Pelkey's first touchdown pass of the season on a 60-yard connection to Bultman to make it 21-14. The Resorters wasted no time stretching their advantage to three scores in the third quarter, with Wagner finding Goble two more times in the frame, while the Vikings mustered one more touchdown on a 9-yard run by Brady White.
