Tristan Kiser Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Tristan Kiser's big game helped extend Port Allegany's winning streak to eight on Saturday. Kiser was excellent, 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 will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant performance when he faces off against Brookville on Friday. Kiser will face off against Anthony Ceriani on Friday, the Raiders' star RB. Will the contest be decided in the trenches? We'll have our answer very soon.

Nick Wilfong Delivers Best Effort of Season
Port Allegany was led to victory by Nick Wilfong, who turned in his biggest game of the season 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.
Kane had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Wilfong it was a similar story. 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 produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Brockway to the win on Thursday. 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 is on a roll lately: they've won three of their last four contests, 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.

Keystone Gets a Boost from Henry in 22-20 Victory

For the season, Henry has caught those 1 touchdown while averaging 27.6 receiving yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 0.71 receiving yards per game.

On the season, Gallagher has caught those 1 touchdown while averaging 27.2 receiving yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after eight games last season, he was only averaging 21.38 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 42.75 rushing yards.
