Grant Kuntz Goes Supernova in Fleming Victory
Grant Kuntz was instrumental in extending Fleming's winning streak to six on Friday. Nobody could stop Kuntz as he rushed for 324 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 18.0 yards per carry. Kuntz is crushing it when it comes to rushing touchdowns: he's punched in at least two every time he's taken the field this season.

Conner Marchant Turns in Season-Best Performance
Fleming was led to victory by Conner Marchant, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Marchant rushed for 245 yards and six touchdowns while picking up 11.1 yards per carry, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He was no stranger to the big play, turning on the jets for a run that went for 57 yards.
This year, Marchant has run in 10 touchdowns while averaging 76.4 rushing yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 7.57 rushing yards per game.
Gamescore: 83.45
Dallas Glass Delivers Best Effort of Season
Dallas Glass produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Briggsdale to the win on Saturday. Glass rushed for 143 yards and four touchdowns on only eight carries, and also threw for 15 yards and a touchdown. He didn't just play on offense: he also forced a fumble and made 17 total tackles (1.0 for loss).
If history really does repeat itself, Glass might just drop another big game when he faces off against Fleming on Friday. When Glass last faced the Wildcats back in October of 2023, he rushed for 202 yards and two touchdowns on only 13 carries.
Gamescore: 71.55
Peetz had to settle for second on Friday, but Dylan Wagner sure wasn't going down easily. Nobody could stop Wagner as he rushed for 150 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 37 yards and a touchdown. Peetz is 2-1 when Wagner posts two or more rushing touchdowns, but 1-3 otherwise.
On the year, Wagner has thrown 3 touchdowns while averaging 23.6 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had two rushing touchdowns. This year he is already up to eight.

On the year, Vallier has thrown 11 touchdowns (and and only 2 picks) while averaging 83.1 passing yards per game.
