Farmington’s Botkin Parkland Healthmart Pharmacy Athlete of the Week

Farmington fullback Braden Botkin earned our Parkland Healthmart Pharmacy Play It Forward Athlete of the Week for his performance in the Knights district championship football win over Cape Central. Botkin carried the ball 29 times for 171 yards and two scores.

Farmington coach Erik Kruppe says Botkin has been reliable and hard working…

When we asked Botkin about his success he first told us about his teammates up front…

As our Athlete of the Week Botkin received a tshirt, a certificate and will get to select  a local non profit to donate $25 to from Parkland Healthmart Pharmacy.

So far Farmington is 10-2. They were ranked 10th in the state in the final poll, but Botkin and the Knights play St. Mary’s Friday night in St. Louis in the Class 4 state quarterfinal game on AM 800 KREI with the winner going to the final four.
