Metro 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!
Cohen Klimak Goes Supernova in Streetsboro Victory
Cohen Klimak was instrumental in extending Streetsboro's winning streak to eight on Friday. Ravenna had no answer to Klimak as he rushed for 195 yards and three touchdowns on only 15 carries. Klimak is on a roll when it comes to rushing touchdowns, as he's now punched in two or more in the last four games he's played dating back to last season.
Unfortunately for Ravenna, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Klimak. When Klimak last faced the Ravens back in September of 2023, he threw for 163 yards and a touchdown on only six passes, and also rushed for 85 yards on only seven carries.
