Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Friday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Wyatt Mckee Tops All Others This Week
Starting off the list is Keystone's Wyatt Mckee, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Mckee made 11 total tackles.
Firelands had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Mckee it was a similar story. Mckee made 15 total tackles (2.0 for loss) the last time he and the Falcons duked it out back in October of 2023.
