Coaches have selected #7, Jacob Flemens, as the Farm Bureau Insurance Player of the Game for week #4, vs. the Booneville Bearcats. Jacob is the son of Jerry and Michelle Flemens and is a 5’6’, Senior, wide receiver / cornerback.
Despite Jacob’s 5 receptions for 60 yards in the game, Mena fell to a very well-conditioned Booneville team, by the final score of 43-12. This was Mena’s third loss of the season. Jacob’s hobbies, when not in school, include a lot of hunting or fishing and just being outdoors.
In fact, he plans to attend Arkansas Tech University after High School and obtain a degree in Biology. He hopes to go to work for the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission after college, as either a Game Warden, or in a Biologist position.
This week, Jacob and the Mena Bearcats will take the short road trip, north, to Waldron and face a much improved Bulldog team, that currently stands at 3-0 for the year. Shown presenting Jacob with Week #4’s game ball, is local Farm Bureau agent, Nathan Fowler, and assistant Bearcat Coach, Kyle Smithers.
Farm Bureau Insurance is a proud support of Bearcat Athletics!
