[Sports in Kansas @sportsinkansas]

Olpe (1A, 1-1) senior Eli Markowitz put on a show Friday night in the Eagles’ 48-0 win over South Sumner. Markowitz was unstoppable, rushing for 203 yards and 6 touchdowns on just 14 carries, averaging nearly 15 yards per touch. Talk about efficiency. After a tough week one loss to Osage City, Olpe bounced back in dominant fashion to move to 1-1 on the year. Head coach Chris Schmidt and the Eagles will look to keep the momentum going as they host Jayhawk Linn this Friday. #sportisnknasas
