Schembri has emerged as one of the more intriguing athletes to watch tonight in a big matchup after making a significant transition at quarterback. Schembri was a breakout receiver last season but has taken over as the signal caller and has shown the ability to make plays from the pocket and on the ground. He has completed 72% of his passes on 51 attempts for seven touchdowns and one interception, while displaying nice touch on the deep ball. As a runner, Schembri has been even more productive, carrying the ball 57 times for 576 yards and six touchdowns. His dual-threat ability makes him a name whose stock should continue rising.     Musilli brings value as a physical back who can contribute in multiple areas of the offense. He has shown the ability to pick up blocks in the passing game, giving his team another dependable option when protecting the quarterback. His biggest impact, however, has come as a runner and being a redzone threat. Musilli has carried the ball 62 times for 364 yards and five touchdowns this season, showing a consistent knack for finding the endzone. His physical running style and ability to finish drives make him a player capable of setting the tone early. Scouts should keep an eye on his impact Friday night and moving forward.     Palatian has an opportunity Friday night to turn his production into a bigger statement when he faces an undefeated Douglas County team. Through the season, Palatian has carried the ball 27 times for 246 yards and five touchdowns, showing impressive efficiency as a runner. He has the explosiveness to create big plays and has consistently demonstrated a knack for finding the endzone when given opportunities. Facing an undefeated opponent provides a chance for Palatian to show how he can dominate against a strong opponent and be a workhorse given the chance. If he can establish the run and creates explosive plays, he could play a major role in giving his team an edge.     Wise has been a driving force behind Grandview's strong start and enters Friday night with an opportunity to make an even bigger statement. Wise has completed 54% of his passes for 539 yards, five touchdowns and one interception while also providing production as a runner. He has carried the ball 34 times for 194 yards and two touchdowns, giving the offense a legitimate dual-threat element. Wise will face a solid Northfield defense, creating an important test for his ability to make plays through the air and on the ground. A strong performance will put him on every scouts radar and make a statement in conference play.     Lewis has established himself as a steady force on the ground despite not yet producing at the same level through the air. His rushing production has been impressive, with 79 carries for 572 yards and seven touchdowns through the season. Lewis is an explosive runner who can make defenders miss in the open field and turn opportunities into big chunk plays. His ability to create plays with his legs gives his offense a consistent weapon to lean on. Friday night provides another opportunity for Lewis to continue his strong rushing stretch against an opponent his team expects to handle. Scouts should watch his explosiveness and playmaking ability closely.     Meglen has been productive through three games and has shown the traits of a running back capable of creating explosive plays. He has carried the ball 50 times for 383 yards and six touchdowns, giving him a strong combination of production and scoring ability. Meglen possesses impressive speed, allowing him to reach the second level and turn on the jets once he finds space. He also understands how to set up his blocks, giving him the ability to find running lanes quickly before accelerating into the open field. His ability to combine vision, speed and finishing ability makes him a player worth watching closely Friday night.
