Carlson football prepares for season without Izaiah Wright

Gibraltar Carlson football faces a significant challenge as standout running back Izaiah Wright has graduated and joined Purdue University. Wright set regional records with 5,657 career rushing yards and 85 touchdowns, contributing to the team’s success over the past four seasons. Coach Jason Gendron expressed his disappointment in losing a player he described as potentially generational. The team will rely on several players, including Brennan Hudson and Myles Hampton, to fill the void in the backfield. Additionally, Carlson is adjusting to a new quarterback competition between Cole Federoff and freshman Austyn Lawrence.
