Lincoln Trail-Prairieland - Small 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!
Ryan Dye Turns in Season-Best Effort
On Friday, Havana got the W thanks in part to Ryan Dye playing the best football he has all season. Dye rushed for 103 yards and three touchdowns on only 14 carries, and also picked up 54 receiving yards and a touchdown. His longest reception was for an impressive 52 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per catch total.
Havana's victory ended a seven-game drought on the road dating back to last season and puts them at 2-6. Dye and Havana will head out to square off against Macomb at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
