Inter-County - North 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!
Nasir Collins Sets Career High in Rushing Yards
Starting off the list is Mount Union's Nasir Collins, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. On Friday Collins made seven total tackles, good enough to also set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He showed off some serious burst, cutting through the defense on one rush that went for 65 yards.
This year, Collins has averaged 8.1 total tackles per game and for the season has 2 interceptions. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had six rushing touchdowns. This year he is already up to 17.

Rocco Reifer's Big Game Leads Moshannon Valley over Curwensville
Rocco Reifer's big game helped extend Moshannon Valley's winning streak to five on Saturday. Curwensville had no answer to Reifer as he rushed for 221 yards and a touchdown while picking up 9.6 yards per carry. Reifer was no stranger to the big play, turning on the jets for a run that went for 60 yards.
On the year, Reifer has run in 7 touchdowns while averaging 142.1 rushing yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 52.71 rushing yards per game.

Ryan Made His Presence Known in Mount Union's 46-0 Victory
The second Mount Union player making an appearance here is Josh Ryan, and for good reason. He rushed for 80 yards and three touchdowns.
If the past is any indication, Ryan could be in store for another big game when he takes on Southern Huntingdon County on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Ryan saw the Rockets), he rushed for 131 yards and three touchdowns on only seven carries.

Mark Lattieri and Co. Win Fifth in a Row
Claysburg-Kimmel picked up their fifth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Mark Lattieri. Lattieri was dynamite, rushing for 117 yards and two touchdowns on only 13 carries, while also picking up 92 receiving yards and a touchdown. He is on a roll when it comes to rushing touchdowns, as he's now punched in two or more in the last three games he's played dating back to last season.
For the year, Lattieri has caught those 1 touchdown while averaging 17.1 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 47 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 126 rushing yards.
Gamescore: 45.65
Mason Campagna Makes It Two for Claysburg-Kimmel
Keeping Lattieri company is Mason Campagna, a fellow Claysburg-Kimmel player. He rushed for 71 yards and three touchdowns, and also threw for 196 yards and a touchdown. He is on a roll when it comes to rushing touchdowns, as he's now punched in two or more in the last five games he's played dating back to last season.
On the year, Campagna has thrown 4 touchdowns while averaging 142 passing yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after seven games last season, he had six rushing touchdowns. This year he is already up to 14.
