Tri-Eastern 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!
Jace Hollendonner Dazzles in Centerville Victory
Starting off the list is Centerville's Jace Hollendonner, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Hollendonner rushed for 114 yards and a touchdown on only ten carries, and also threw for 149 yards and three touchdowns while completing 72.7% of his passes. His longest rush was for an impressive 62 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
Hollendonner is probably looking forward to his next game, a road matchup against Eastern Hancock on Friday. When Hollendonner last faced the Royals back in September, he threw for 173 yards and a touchdown while completing 73.7% of his passes, and also rushed for 60 yards.

On the year, Mull has run in 5 touchdowns while averaging 43.8 rushing yards per game.
