North Central 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!
Keemarion Pollard Delivers Electric Performance Vs Richmond
Starting off the list is Kokomo's Keemarion Pollard, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Pollard rushed for 191 yards and three touchdowns on only eight carries. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 80-yard run.
Pollard is probably looking forward to his next game, a road matchup against McCutcheon on Friday. When Pollard last faced the Mavericks back in September of 2023, he rushed for 112 yards and a touchdown on only 15 carries.

Jack Gonzalez and Co. Win Fourth in a Row
Harrison picked up their fourth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Jack Gonzalez. Gonzalez wasn't messing around, making two total tackles. The matchup was his third straight with two or more rushing touchdowns dating back to last season.
Harrison's victory bumped their record up to 5-2. Gonzalez and Harrison will face off against Lafayette Jefferson at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 46.07
Echols Made His Presence Known in Muncie Central's 20-14 Defeat
Dae'Cion Echols put up the most rushing yards he's had since back in October of 2023 on Friday. He rushed for 106 yards and a touchdown. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up a sack and making eight total tackles (2.0 for loss).
Echols and Muncie Central will look to defend their home field on Friday against Marion at 7:00 p.m. The last time Echols took on the Giants, he rushed for 65 yards and two touchdowns. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

Keyen Crowder Sets Career High in Rushing Yards
Keyen Crowder was instrumental in extending Lafayette Jefferson's winning streak to seven on Friday. Nobody could stop Crowder as he threw for 213 yards and four touchdowns, and also rushed for 33 yards and a touchdown. The dominant performance gave him a new career-high in rushing yards.
Crowder and Lafayette Jefferson will challenge Harrison at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The match will pit Crowder up against the Raiders' star quarterback Lannon Nicoloff. So who wins this QB-duel? There's only one way to know for sure.
