District 9 Region 3 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!
Marfink Came Up Big in Sheffield's 36-8 Win
Starting off the list is Sheffield's Alex Marfink, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Marfink picked up three sacks and made 26 total tackles (5.0 for loss). Marfink is crushing it when it comes to total tackles: he's made at least 19 every time he's taken the field this season.
Marfink must have Bucktail's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Marfink picked up three sacks and made 24 total tackles the last time he and the Bucks duked it out back in August.
Gamescore: 55.75
Kamden Fragale Has Career Rushing Day
Kamden Fragale posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Friday. He made five total tackles (2.0 for loss). He showed off some serious burst, turning on the afterburners on one carry for 56 yards.
The win (which was Cameron County's third in a row) raised their record to 6-2. Fragale and Cameron County will challenge Port Allegany at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 48.30
Colby Barr Makes It Two for Sheffield
The second Sheffield player making an appearance here is Colby Barr, and for good reason. He rushed for 105 yards and two touchdowns on only ten carries. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his seventh straight game with at least 101 rushing yards dating back to last season.
Bucktail's probably not too fond of Barr given he always seems to get the better of them. When Barr last faced the Bucks back in August, he rushed for 101 yards and two touchdowns on only 13 carries, and also threw for 116 yards and a touchdown on only ten passes.
Gamescore: 37.77
Malakai Zucal Goes Supernova in Cameron County Win
Another Cameron County player making an appearance on this list is Malakai Zucal. He rushed for 112 yards, and also threw for 22 yards and a touchdown.
Unfortunately for Smethport, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Zucal. When Zucal last faced the Hubbers back in September, he rushed for 195 yards while picking up 8.1 yards per carry.
Gamescore: 34.58
Danny Vanvladricken Has Career-Day on Friday
Danny Vanvladricken posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Friday. He rushed for 71 yards and a touchdown. The bulk of those rushing yards came from one huge play: a run that gained an incredible 82 yards.
For the season, Vanvladricken has averaged 62.5 receiving yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after eight games last season, he was only averaging 24.38 receiving yards per game.
