A-6 North (6 Man) Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances across Friday and Saturday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Grant Kuntz Delivers Best Effort of Season
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 match was his seventh straight with two or more rushing touchdowns. He was no stranger to the big play, turning on the jets for a run that went 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 take on 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. Nobody could stop Schock as he rushed 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 win ended a three-game drought at home and bumped them up to 4-4. Schock and Prairie are taking a road trip to take on Stratton at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Justin Schreiner's Rushing Yards a New Career-High
Justin Schreiner posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Friday. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his fifth straight game with at least 108 rushing yards dating back to last season. 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 season, 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 Posts Huge Game in 41-8 Win
Thanks in part to Gavin Pittington, North Park said goodbye to their ten-game losing streak dating back to last season. 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.
Weldon Valley's probably not too fond of Pittington given he always seems to get the better of them. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Pittington saw the Warriors), he rushed for 78 yards and three touchdowns on only eight carries.

Conner Marchant's Big Game Leads Fleming over Briggsdale
Conner Marchant's big game helped extend Fleming's winning streak to seven on Friday. Marchant was unstoppable, rushing for 95 yards and two touchdowns on only nine carries. The bulk of those rushing yards came from one huge play: a run that gained an incredible 54 yards.
This season, Marchant has run in 12 touchdowns while averaging 78.8 rushing yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he had one rushing touchdown.
