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 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 game 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 victory 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
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Friday Lane Schock stepped things up a notch to give Prairie the 'W'. 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 win ended a three-game drought at home and bumped them up to 4-4. Schock and Prairie will face off against Stratton at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 79.80
Justin Schreiner Has Career Rushing Day
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 Posts Huge Game in 41-8 Victory
North Park's ten-game losing streak dating back to last season is now nothing but a memory thanks in part to Gavin Pittington. Nobody could stop Pittington on Saturday as he rushed for 262 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 9.7 yards per carry, and also caught 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.

Fleming Wins Seventh-Straight Thanks to Conner Marchant
Conner Marchant was instrumental in extending 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.
On the 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 was only averaging 7.5 rushing yards per game.
