This season, Tallion has averaged 5 total tackles per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 1.86 receiving yards per game. This year he is averaging 5.14 receiving yards.

Aaron Bowers Dazzles in Northern Bedford County Win
Aaron Bowers's big game helped extend Northern Bedford County's winning streak to four on Friday. Bowers did his part (and then some), picking up 98 receiving yards and two touchdowns for the 'W'. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making five total tackles and defending a pass in addition to snagging an interception.
Northern Bedford County's win was their third straight at home, which pushed their record up to 6-1. A feisty cat fight will be fought when Panthers takes on North Star at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Windber Gets a Boost from Oleksa in 41-7 Victory
The second Windber player making an appearance here is Lucas Oleksa, and for good reason. He rushed for 51 yards and a touchdown, and also threw for 103 yards and a touchdown. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up 1.5 sacks and making three total tackles (2.0 for loss).
This season, Oleksa has thrown those 1 touchdown while averaging 50.4 passing yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 5.66 passer rating per game. This year he is averaging 74.47 passer rating.
