Flint Hills 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!
James Marcotte Crosses Big Stat Threshold
On Friday, Lyndon got the W thanks in part to James Marcotte playing the best football he has all season. Marcotte rushed for 174 yards and three touchdowns on only 14 carries, and also picked up 76 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He's now once again averaging 100+ rushing yards (110.4) per game. The dominant performance gave him a new career-high in rushing yards.
For the season, Marcotte has caught those 2 touchdowns while averaging 23 receiving yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after five games last season, he was only averaging 3.2 rushing yards per game.

Kasen Parsons Delivers Electric Performance Vs Council Grove
Kasen Parsons put up the most rushing yards he's had since back in October of 2023 on Friday. He rushed for 123 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 225 yards and two touchdowns while completing 80.6% of his passes.
Parsons must have Council Grove's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. When Parsons last faced the Braves back in November of 2023, he rushed for 73 yards and a touchdown on only six carries, and also threw for 125 yards and a touchdown.
