Keystone State (8 Man) Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances across Friday and Saturday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Sam Dixon Dazzles in Delaware County Christian Victory
Starting off the list is Delaware County Christian's Sam Dixon, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Dixon rushed for 102 yards and two touchdowns on only six carries, and also threw for 195 yards and four touchdowns while completing 88.9% of his passes. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his fourth straight game with at least 102 rushing yards dating back to last season.
Unfortunately for Mercersburg Academy, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Dixon. Dixon rushed for 321 yards and eight touchdowns while picking up 11.5 yards per carry, and also threw for 39 yards and a touchdown the last time he and the Blue Storm duked it out back in October of 2023.
Gamescore: 62.10
Luke Hunter put up the most rushing yards he's had since back in October of 2023 on Friday. He made eight total tackles and defended two passes. He showed off some serious burst, cutting through the defense on one rush that went for 60 yards.
This season, Hunter has averaged 7.2 total tackles per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 9.67 receiving yards per game. This year he is averaging 50 receiving yards.
Gamescore: 44.70

This year, Pruessner has caught 5 touchdowns while averaging 67.8 receiving yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after four games last season, he had three receiving touchdowns.
