Alcorn, a freshman quarterback, paced the Aurora offense in a 61-5 win over Rockford, tying a NACC single-game record with eight touchdown passes. Overall, he was 16-of-24 through the air for 395 yards and two interceptions. The eight touchdowns, which sets an Aurora single-game record, matches the mark set by Rockford's Jaelen Ray (2021 vs. Eureka) and Benedictine's Evan Wydajewski (2022 at Rockford). The 395 yards is also third-most for a single game in program history.
