Grant Kuntz Turns in Season-Best Performance
On Friday, Fleming got the W thanks in part to Grant Kuntz playing the best football he has all season. Kuntz wasn't messing around, rushing for 340 yards and six touchdowns while picking up 18.9 yards per carry. The matchup 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 win 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.

Winning always takes teamwork, but on Friday Lane Schock stepped things up a notch to give Prairie the 'W'. Peetz had no answer to Schock as he rushed for 256 yards and four touchdowns on only 11 carries. Schock's 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 will head out to square off against Stratton at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Justin Schreiner Has Career-Day on Friday
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.

This season, Schreiner has run in 8 touchdowns while averaging 124.9 rushing yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 34.71 rushing yards per game.
