Northeast Corner - Small School 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!
Ianucilli Made His Presence Known in Churubusco's 42-18 Loss
Starting off the list is Churubusco's Angelo Ianucilli, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Ianucilli rushed for 104 yards and two touchdowns. He is becoming a predictor of Churubusco's success: when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns the team is 3-1 (and 1-4 when he doesn't).
Fairfield's probably not too fond of Ianucilli given he always seems to get the better of them. Ianucilli rushed for 140 yards while picking up 8.8 yards per carry the last time he and the Falcons duked it out back in October of 2023.
Gamescore: 23.55
While Kaison Hewitt delivered a dominant performance on Friday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Eastside. Nobody could stop Hewitt as he rushed for 71 yards and a touchdown.
With the loss, Eastside broke their three-game winning streak and moved their record to 4-5. Their road trip will continue as they head out to face Whitko at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

This year, Bianski has caught 2 touchdowns while averaging 20.3 receiving yards per game.
