Dupill Posts Huge Game in 27-17 Defeat
Starting off the list is Franklin Regional's Kyle Dupill, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Dupill rushed for 208 yards and a touchdown. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his ninth straight game with at least 106 rushing yards dating back to last season.
For the year, Dupill has averaged 11.8 receiving yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after nine games last season, he was only averaging 115.33 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 176.22 rushing yards.

Penn-Trafford Wins Fifth-Straight Thanks to Tasso Whipple
Tasso Whipple was instrumental in extending Penn-Trafford's winning streak to five on Friday. Whipple did his part (and then some), rushing for 76 yards and two touchdowns on only nine carries for the 'W'.
Penn-Trafford's win was their third straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 7-2. Whipple will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant effort when he faces off against Greater Latrobe on Friday.
