Tri-Eastern Top Player Performances of the Week
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!
Jace Hollendonner Dazzles in Centerville Win
Starting off the list is Centerville's Jace Hollendonner, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Hollendonner rushed for 114 yards and a touchdown on only ten carries, and also threw for 149 yards and three touchdowns while completing 72.7% of his passes. The bulk of those rushing yards came from one huge play: a run that gained an incredible 62 yards.
If history really does repeat itself, Hollendonner might just drop another big game when he faces off against Eastern Hancock on Friday. When Hollendonner last faced the Royals back in September, he threw for 173 yards and a touchdown while completing 73.7% of his passes, and also rushed for 60 yards.

Blake Waters and Co. Win Ninth in a Row

Dylan Ross Turns in Another Game with at Least 104 Rushing Yards
Northeastern picked up their ninth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Dylan Ross. Ross' rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 104 rushing yards dating back to last season.
This season, Ross has averaged 27 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had four rushing touchdowns. This year he is already up to ten.
