Laurel Highlands Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances across Friday and Saturday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Gavin Harrold and Co. Win 12th in a Row
Gavin Harrold was instrumental in extending Penn Cambria's winning streak to 12 on Friday. Harrold turned in nothing short of a gem, picking up 146 receiving yards and a touchdown, while also rushing for 48 yards and two touchdowns. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making seven total tackles and defending two passes.
Unfortunately for Tyrone, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Harrold. When Harrold last faced the Golden Eagles back in November of 2023, he rushed for 87 yards and two touchdowns on only ten carries, and also picked up 51 receiving yards.
Gamescore: 56.12
Swaim Made His Presence Known in Bedford's 18-0 Win
Quincy Swaim posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Friday. He rushed for 268 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 7.4 yards per carry. He was no stranger to the big play, taking off on a dash that went for 61 yards.
This year, Swaim has averaged 66 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 40 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 136.42 rushing yards.
Gamescore: 53.00
Hamilton Gates Dazzles in Bishop Guilfoyle Win
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Saturday Hamilton Gates stepped things up a notch to give Bishop Guilfoyle the 'W'. Gates was dynamite, rushing for 64 yards and three touchdowns on only six carries, while also picking up 60 receiving yards.

Taurean Consiglio Makes It Two for Bishop Guilfoyle

This season, Consiglio has caught 4 touchdowns while averaging 20.5 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 1.45 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 78.33 rushing yards.
