Lancaster-Lebanon 2 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!
Jayden Zandier Delivers Electric Performance Vs Hempfield
Jayden Zandier's big game helped extend Exeter Township's winning streak to eight on Friday. 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'.
Hempfield's probably not too fond of Zandier given he always seems to get the better of them. Zandier rushed for 251 yards and three touchdowns on only 15 carries the last time he and the Black Knights duked it out back in October of 2023.
Gamescore: 28.47
Ephrata found a leader in Brayden Brown as the team took down Muhlenberg on Friday. Brown turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 73 yards.
Unfortunately for Muhlenberg, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Brown. When Brown last faced the Muhls back in October of 2023, he rushed for 111 yards and a touchdown on only ten carries, and also picked up 32 receiving yards.
Gamescore: 26.65
Grant Made His Presence Known in Ephrata's 32-0 Win

This year, Grant has thrown 7 touchdowns while averaging 107.4 passing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after eight games last season, he was only averaging 5.75 passing yards per game.
