1A District 3 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!
Tuff Street Crosses Big Stat Threshold
On Friday, LaSalle got the W thanks in part to Tuff Street playing the best football he has all season. Street rushed for 185 yards and five touchdowns on only 15 carries, and also threw for 20 yards and a touchdown. He's now once again averaging 100+ rushing yards (108.7) per game. His passing game has become a key predictor of LaSalle's success: the team is 2-1 when his passer rating is 110 or higher, but only 1-2 otherwise.
The win was the third in a row for LaSalle, bringing their record for this year to 3-3. Street and LaSalle will head out to square off against Northwood at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday.
