AJ Lindsey Drops League-Best Performance on Friday
Starting off the list is Landrum's AJ Lindsey, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Lindsey made ten total tackles (1.0 for loss).
Lindsey must have Blacksburg's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. When Lindsey last faced the Wildcats back in October of 2023, he forced two fumbles and made 11 total tackles (3.0 for loss).
