Midwest Stat-Monsters: Top-60 Individual Performances from 10.7

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>My apologies for missing this <em>PrepRedzone</em> Midwest weekly special's 9/30 edition from last week, I somehow got caught up highlighting the American Heartland's rushing yardage, TD, and tackle leaders and before I knew it it was Friday and relevant window of publishing had closed. Luckily, high school athletes from Michigan to Kansas took it upon themselves to pop off for unreal Friday night stat lines on offense, defense, and special teams, and we have some of the best hot and ready for our subscribers below. Whether it was a monster 49 carry for 367 yard night in Indiana, a 9 TD rushing game in Kansas, 7 TDs out of the Show-Me State, or a 3 force fumble defensive effort in Michigan, <em>PrepRedzone</em> has highlighted 60 of the top individual performances from this past weekend's action in the Flyover States. Eight states represented as well! Additionally, if you think I've missed a top performer please email me at oliver@prepredzone.com or DM me nicely on Twitter @OJW_Scouting. Congratulations to this week's Midwest Stat Monsters!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>--</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"large"} --> <p class="has-large-font-size"><em>Illinois </em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Ethan Kohl</strong> (<em>Bradley-Bourbonnais</em>) 2024.
