Central State 8 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!
A Season-Best Performance from Trace Combs Leads Harrisburg over Russellville
On Friday, Harrisburg got the W thanks in part to Trace Combs playing the best football he has all season. Combs rushed for 178 yards on only six carries, and also threw for 109 yards and two touchdowns, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
On the year, Combs has thrown 12 touchdowns while averaging 139.7 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 20.13 passer rating per game. This year he is averaging 90.19 passer rating.
