Andreasen Made His Presence Known in Pius X's 42-8 Victory
Starting off the list is Pius X's Joseph Andreasen, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Andreasen rushed for 93 yards and three touchdowns on only nine carries.
If history really does repeat itself, Andreasen might just drop another big game when he faces off against Beatrice on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Andreasen saw the Orangemen), he rushed for 105 yards and three touchdowns.

Waverly Wins Fifth-Straight Thanks to Carter Mcmillan
