Grant Kuntz Delivers Best Effort of Season
Grant Kuntz produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Fleming to the win on Friday. Kuntz wasn't messing around, rushing for 340 yards and six touchdowns while picking up 18.9 yards per carry. The contest was his seventh straight with two or more rushing touchdowns. He showed off some serious burst, turning on the afterburners on one carry for 65 yards.
The victory was the seventh in a row for Fleming, bringing their record for this year to 7-1. Kuntz and Fleming will face off against Idalia at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 121.55
Prairie found a leader in Lane Schock as the squad took down Peetz on Friday. Schock was dynamite, rushing for 256 yards and four touchdowns on only 11 carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 50 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
Prairie's victory ended a three-game drought at home and bumped them up to 4-4. Schock and Prairie are taking a road trip to square off against Stratton at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 79.80
Justin Schreiner Sets Career High in Rushing Yards
Justin Schreiner posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Friday. That high mark didn't come from nowhere: he posted at least 108 rushing yards in the fifth games prior. He also punched in four rushing touchdowns, which is notable because Prairie is 2-1 when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns, but 2-3 otherwise.
On the year, Schreiner has run in 8 touchdowns while averaging 124.9 rushing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 34.71 rushing yards per game.

Pittington Made His Presence Known in North Park's 41-8 Win
North Park's ten-game losing streak dating back to last season is now nothing but a memory thanks in part to Gavin Pittington. Pittington turned in nothing short of a gem on Saturday, rushing for 262 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 9.7 yards per carry, and also catching a touchdown. Those 262 rushing yards gave him a new career-high.
Pittington must have Weldon Valley's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Pittington rushed for 78 yards and three touchdowns on only eight carries the last time he and the Warriors duked it out back in September of 2023.

Conner Marchant Goes Supernova in Fleming Victory
Fleming picked up their seventh consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Conner Marchant. Marchant did his part (and then some), rushing for 95 yards and two touchdowns on only nine carries for the 'W'. He got the majority of those rushing yards when he took off on a run that went for an incredible 54 yards.
This year, Marchant has run in 12 touchdowns while averaging 78.8 rushing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after eight games last season, he had one rushing touchdown.
Gamescore: 37.65
