Great Lakes Christian Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Saturday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Foutz Came Up Big in Calumet Christian's 42-6 Victory
Starting off the list is Calumet Christian's Kolton Foutz, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Foutz rushed for 40 yards and three touchdowns, and also threw for 190 yards and two touchdowns. He didn't just play on offense: he also forced a fumble, made a tackle, and defended a pass.
Illinois C's probably not too fond of Foutz given he always seems to get the better of them. Foutz threw for 192 yards and four touchdowns while completing 71.4% of his passes, and also rushed for 57 yards and a touchdown the last time he and the Crusaders duked it out back in September of 2023.

Jackson Gary Makes It Two for Calumet Christian
Keeping Foutz company is Jackson Gary, a fellow Calumet Christian player. He rushed for 104 yards and a touchdown.
On the year, Gary has run in 8 touchdowns while averaging 90.6 rushing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 0.57 rushing yards per game.

Ezekiel Bowie's Big Game Can't Quite Lead Columbus Crusaders over Cincinnati Landmark
Ezekiel Bowie continued his hot streak on Saturday by dropping his sixth-straight game (dating back to last season) with at least two rushing touchdowns. He rushed for 98 yards and two touchdowns.
Bowie and Columbus Crusaders will host Middletown Christian at 7:00 p.m. on Saturday. The last time Bowie took on Middletown Christian, he rushed for 72 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

Israel Marcum Dazzles in Cincinnati Landmark Victory
Cincinnati Landmark (583) came into Saturday's match against Columbus Crusaders (271) with a disadvantage in the MaxPreps Ohio Rankings, but Israel Marcum wasn't bothered. Nobody could stop Marcum on Saturday as he picked up 155 receiving yards and a touchdown. He showed off some serious burst, cutting upfield on a catch for 50 yards.
Cincinnati Landmark's win was their seventh straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 4-2. Marcum and Cincinnati Landmark will challenge Noblesville L at 5:30 p.m. on Saturday.
