Macomb Area - Red 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!
Hanson Iii Came Up Big in Anchor Bay's 24-21 Defeat
Starting off the list is Anchor Bay's Gerry Hanson Iii, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Hanson Iii picked up 93 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Hanson Iii must have Chippewa Valley's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. When Hanson Iii last faced the Big Reds back in September of 2023, he picked up 232 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Gamescore: 29.12
Dakota had to settle for second on Friday, but Brady Hamby sure wasn't going down easily. Hamby turned in nothing short of a gem, making four total tackles (1.0 for loss).
With the defeat, Dakota broke their six-game winning streak and moved their record to 6-1. Hamby and Dakota will take on Utica at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 27.87
Lafear Made His Presence Known in Anchor Bay's 24-21 Loss
Ryan Lafear put up the most rushing yards he's had since back in September of 2023 on Friday. He threw for 203 yards and two touchdowns on only 16 passes.
Chippewa Valley's probably not too fond of Lafear given he always seems to get the better of them. When Lafear last faced the Big Reds back in September of 2023, he threw for 318 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 11.8 yards per attempt.
