Inter-County - South 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!
Tussey Mountain's Losing Streak Is No More Thanks to Gavin Hall
Thanks in part to Gavin Hall, Tussey Mountain said goodbye to their five-game losing streak. On Friday Hall picked up 52 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 68 yards and a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up a sack and making six total tackles.
For the season, Hall has caught those 2 touchdowns while averaging 31 receiving yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 2.13 receiving yards per game.

Big Game from Lucko As Tussey Mountain Won 28-26
Thanks in part to Noah Lucko, Tussey Mountain said goodbye to their five-game losing streak. Lucko was unstoppable on Friday, rushing for 150 yards and a touchdown while picking up 7.5 yards per carry. That's the most rushing yards he has posted since back in October of 2023.
Lucko might have his next game, a road matchup with Clear Spring, circled on his calendar. Lucko rushed for 185 yards and a touchdown on only 14 carries the last time he and the Blazers duked it out back in October of 2023.
