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!
Jayden Zandier Delivers Electric Effort Vs Hempfield
Exeter Township picked up their eighth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Jayden Zandier. Zandier did his part (and then some), rushing for 70 yards and two touchdowns, while also throwing for 40 yards and a touchdown for the 'W'.
Zandier must have Hempfield's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Zandier saw the Black Knights), he rushed for 251 yards and three touchdowns on only 15 carries.

Brayden Brown was a major factor in Ephrata's win over Muhlenberg on Friday. Nobody could stop Brown as he rushed for 73 yards.
