3A Western Foothills Top Player Performances of the Week

Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Friday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!

Landen Agee's Big Game Leads North Lincoln over St. Stephens

Starting off the list is North Lincoln's Landen Agee, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Agee rushed for 92 yards and three touchdowns on only ten carries.

The win made it two in a row for North Lincoln and bumps their season record up to 6-1. Agee and North Lincoln will have some time to savor their victory since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on West Iredell at 7:00 p.m. on October 25th.

Gamescore: 44.15

East Lincoln found a leader in Jalen Fletcher-Mclean as the team took down Foard on Friday. Fletcher-Mclean was unstoppable, rushing for 92 yards and two touchdowns on only eight carries.

This year, Fletcher-Mclean has averaged 34.3 receiving yards per game.

Hickory Wins 23rd-Straight Thanks to Tylar Johnson

Hickory picked up their 23rd consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Tylar Johnson. Johnson forced a fumble and made three total tackles, good enough to also set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He didn't just play on offense: he also forced a fumble and made three total tackles.

Hickory's victory was their ninth straight on the road dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 7-0. Johnson and Hickory will challenge West Iredell at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.

Gamescore: 29.55

Jaheem Jenkins was instrumental in extending Hickory's winning streak to 23 on Friday. Jenkins did his part (and then some), rushing for 80 yards and two touchdowns on only eight carries for the 'W'.

The second East Lincoln player making an appearance here is Jackson Beam, and for good reason. He picked up 43 receiving yards and two touchdowns.

This season, Beam has caught 9 touchdowns while averaging 57.6 receiving yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he had five receiving touchdowns.
