LITTLE ROCK - East Poinsett County 4-year starting quarterback Preston Rains is the First Community Bank Scholar Athlete of the Week.
Rains (6-2, 225; 280-pound power clean) completed 57 percent of his passes last fall for 1,796 yards and this season led EPC to its first conference championship since 2014.
More than 6,000 boys play high school football in the state. Rains (4.0 GPA) is one of only 13 selected for the prestigious award presented by First Community.
Bank representative David Daniel, Allen Williams, Jana Malone, Paul Hindman and Monica Lung surprised Rains after a recent EPC  practice 
with the announcement. Earlier this season, First Community presented the award to standout students at Mountain Home, West Memphis, Batesville, Pocahontas, Vilonia, Rivercrest, Harding Academy (Searcy), Valley View and Cabot.
First Community Bank is a locally owned and operated bank with 27 locations in Arkansas and Missouri.
