A Season-Best Performance from Quincy To?Oto?O Leads South Bend Adams over South Bend Washington
South Bend Adams's 14-game losing streak dating back to last season is now nothing but a memory thanks in part to Quincy To?Oto?O.

The dominant performance gave him a new career-high in rushing yards.
On the year, To?Oto?O has caught 4 touchdowns while averaging 46.4 receiving yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 25.86 receiving yards per game.

New Prairie Gets a Boost from Robinson in 42-28 Win
Reed Robinson put up the most rushing yards he's had since back in October of 2023 on Friday. He rushed for 178 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 7.1 yards per carry. He has become a key player for New Prairie: the team is undefeated when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns, but 1-2 otherwise.

Harrison Groves Turns in Another Game with at Least Seven Total Tackles
On Friday, New Prairie got the W thanks in part to Harrison Groves playing the best football he has all season. Groves wasn't messing around, picking up two sacks and making nine total tackles (3.0 for loss). The contest was his fourth straight with seven or more total tackles dating back to last season.
Groves is probably looking forward to his next game, a home matchup against Penn on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Groves saw the Kingsmen), he forced a fumble and made 14 total tackles (1.0 for loss).
