Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played from last Thursday through Saturday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Tristan Kiser Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Tristan Kiser's big game helped extend Port Allegany's winning streak to eight on Saturday. Kiser showed up in a big way, rushing for 111 yards and two touchdowns, while also picking up 47 receiving yards and a touchdown. He's now once again averaging 100+ rushing yards (100.8) per game.
Kiser and Port Allegany will head out to take on Brookville at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Kiser will face off against Anthony Ceriani, the Raiders' star running back. With so much talent on the field, fans are surely in for an exciting game. The only thing left to see is who brings home the W.

Nick Wilfong Delivers Best Effort of Season
Nick Wilfong produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Port Allegany to the win on Saturday. Wilfong rushed for 55 yards and a touchdown, and also picked up 51 receiving yards and a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
Unfortunately for Kane, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Wilfong. Wilfong threw for 153 yards and four touchdowns while completing 80% of his passes the last time he and the Wolves duked it out back in September of 2023.

Blake Pisarcik Sets Career High in Rushing Yards
On Thursday, Brockway got the W thanks in part to Blake Pisarcik playing the best football he has all season. Pisarcik rushed for 152 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 7.6 yards per carry, and also picked up 38 receiving yards and a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
Brockway has been performing well recently as they've won three of their last four games, which provided a nice bump to their 5-3 record this season. Pisarcik and Brockway will face off against DuBois at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Henry Made His Presence Known in Keystone's 22-20 Victory
Keystone took down Ridgway/Johnsonburg on Friday, a win that might not have happened without Jacob Henry's performance. Nobody could stop Henry as he rushed for 68 yards on only nine carries, and also caught a touchdown.
This year, Henry has caught those 1 touchdown while averaging 27.6 receiving yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 0.71 receiving yards per game.

Max Gallagher Turns in Season-Best Effort
Sadly, Max Gallagher posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Union/Allegheny-Clarion Valley over Brockway on Thursday. Gallagher picked up 55 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 33 yards.
On the season, Gallagher has caught those 1 touchdown while averaging 27.2 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 21.38 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 42.75 rushing yards.
