Mckenzie Yanta Crosses Big Stat Threshold

Big Game from Johnson As Falls City Won 48-7
Another Falls City player making an appearance on this list is Braylon Johnson. He rushed for 103 yards and a touchdown on only 12 carries, and also threw for 53 yards and a touchdown. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 103 rushing yards dating back to last season.
Unfortunately for Louise, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Johnson. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Johnson saw the Hornets), he rushed for 114 yards and three touchdowns on only nine carries, and also threw for 112 yards on only eight passes.
