Crawford-Neosho-Cherokee 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!
Jacob Grant Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Friday, Baxter Springs got the W thanks in part to Jacob Grant playing the best football he has all season. Grant picked up 210 receiving yards and three touchdowns. The effort also marked the most rushing yards (19) he has had since back in September of 2023. He torched the secondary when he pulled down a catch that went for 85 yards.
Grant and Baxter Springs are taking a road trip to face off against Galena at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. The Lions got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Bulldogs, probably because Grant had a solid game then too: he picked up 120 receiving yards and a touchdown. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
