Parkview has several weapons on the offensive side of the ball that can change the outcome of the game with just one play. The Greenwood defense must account for quarterback Jaylon White Jaylon White 6'3" | 200 lbs | DB Little Rock Parkview | 2022 State AR , wide receivers Willie Eackles Willie Eackles 5'11" | 175 lbs | RB Little Rock Parkview | 2023 State AR and Parker Perry Parker Perry 6'4" | 175 lbs | WR Little Rock Parkview | 2022 State AR , and running back James Jointer James Jointer 6'0" | 205 lbs | RB Little Rock Parkview | 2022 State AR .
