Dumm Came Up Big in Northern Cambria's 28-0 Victory
Starting off the list is Northern Cambria's Ty Dumm, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Dumm rushed for 134 yards and two touchdowns on only 12 carries, and also threw for 115 yards and a touchdown. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 74-yard run.
If history really does repeat itself, Dumm might just drop another big game when he faces off against Conemaugh Township on Friday. When Dumm last faced the Indians back in September of 2023, he rushed for 137 yards and a touchdown on only eight carries.
