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 Posts Huge Game in 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.
Unfortunately for Illinois C, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Foutz. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Foutz saw the Crusaders), he threw for 192 yards and four touchdowns while completing 71.4% of his passes, and also rushed for 57 yards and a touchdown.

Jackson Gary Makes It Two for Calumet Christian
Another Calumet Christian player making an appearance on this list is Jackson Gary. He rushed for 104 yards and a touchdown.
For 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 Goes Supernova in Columbus Crusaders Loss
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 welcome 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?
