LAWRENCE — He left the large group of celebrating Hutchinson High football players with that ever-present smile. There’s a hint of shyness in Blaik Middleton’s smile. He’s just a senior football player trying to score touchdowns. Nothing more. But Friday at Lawrence Free State, Middleton wasn’t just a football player. He was quite possibly the best football player in the state, and thanks in part to Middleton’s efforts, the Salthawks are back in the state championship game for the 10th time in 12 years. Middleton wasn’t surprised that the Salthawks punished Free State 42-14, but when told what his final numbers were, even Middleton shook his head with disdain. Not only did Middleton score all six Hutchinson touchdowns, but he also rushed for a jaw-dropping 357 yards on just 21 carries. That’s 17 yards a carry. “That is a big night,” Middleton said, that smile getting bigger. “I give God all the glory, and I give all By George M.
