WPIAL A Eastern 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!
A Season-Best Performance from Kymon'e Brown Leads Jeannette over Brentwood
Jeannette was led to victory by Kymon'E Brown, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Brown threw for 366 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 11.8 yards per attempt, and also rushed for 97 yards and two touchdowns.
Brown and Jeannette will welcome Springdale at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Jayhawks got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Dynamos, probably because Brown had a solid game then too: he picked up 135 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
