Wyatt Mckee Drops League-Best Effort on Friday
Starting off the list is Keystone's Wyatt Mckee, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Mckee made 11 total tackles.
Mckee must have Firelands's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Mckee saw the Falcons), he made 15 total tackles (2.0 for loss).
Gamescore: 43.10

Gage Maruna Has Career-Day on Friday
Gage Maruna posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Friday. He rushed for 86 yards and two touchdowns.
The win was the third in a row for Columbia, bringing their record for this year to 6-2. Maruna's next contest is against Brookside on Friday, where he'll look to repeat that solid effort.
Gamescore: 38.65
Clearview had to settle for second on Friday, but Josiah Longo sure wasn't going down easily. Longo was unstoppable, rushing for 95 yards on only eight carries. He also put in work on the defensive side of the ball, picking up a sack and making seven total tackles.
Clearview's loss ended a ten-game streak of wins at home dating back to last season and dropped them to 6-1. Longo and Clearview will challenge Black River at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
