WPIAL AA Century 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!
Jacob Stephenson Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Jacob Stephenson produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Waynesburg Central to the win on Friday. Stephenson rushed for 197 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 12.3 yards per carry, and also threw for 163 yards and a touchdown on only 14 passes. He's now once again averaging 100+ rushing yards (109.5) per game. Waynesburg Central is 3-1 when Stephenson posts two or more rushing touchdowns, but 2-3 otherwise.
Waynesburg Central and Sto-Rox are set to duel on Friday. The Raiders had to take a loss when they last met the Vikings, but Stephenson had little to do with the loss: he rushed for 54 yards and two touchdowns on only six carries. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
