WPIAL A Eastern 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!
Kymon'e Brown Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Friday, Jeannette got the W thanks in part to Kymon'E Brown playing the best football he has all season. Brown threw for 366 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 11.8 yards per attempt, and also rushed for 97 yards and two touchdowns.
Brown and Jeannette will welcome Springdale at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Jayhawks got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Dynamos, probably because Brown had a solid game then too: he picked up 135 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

Samir Crosby Goes Supernova in Greensburg Central Catholic Victory
Samir Crosby was instrumental in extending Greensburg Central Catholic's winning streak to four on Friday. Springdale had no answer to Crosby as he rushed for 63 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 51 yards and a touchdown.
