Section 3 8-Man - North/West (8 Man) Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances across Friday and Saturday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Luke Robillard Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Starting off the list is Tupper Lake's Luke Robillard, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Robillard rushed for 116 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 7.3 yards per carry. He's now once again averaging 100+ rushing yards (100.2) per game. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up two sacks and making eight total tackles.
If history really does repeat itself, Robillard might just drop another big game when he faces off against Waterville on Friday. Robillard rushed for 152 yards and a touchdown the last time he and the Indians duked it out back in October of 2023.

Morrisville-Eaton picked up their third consecutive win on Saturday thanks in part to Noah Mudge. Notre Dame had no answer to Mudge as he made four total tackles.
Morrisville-Eaton's victory bumped their record up to 5-1. Mudge will have a chance to log another big game when he takes on Bishop Grimes on Saturday.

Highers Came Up Big in Morrisville-Eaton's 55-6 Victory
Another Morrisville-Eaton player making an appearance on this list is Carter Highers. He picked up 110 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He was no stranger to the big play, connecting on a big catch that went for 50 yards.
If history really does repeat itself, Highers might just drop another big game when he faces off against Bishop Grimes on Saturday. Highers rushed for 139 yards and two touchdowns on only 13 carries, and also picked up 67 receiving yards and two touchdowns the last time he and the Cobras duked it out back in September of 2023.
