Lincoln Trail-Prairieland - Small 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!
Ryan Dye Delivers Best Effort of Season
On Friday, Havana got the W thanks in part to Ryan Dye playing the best football he has all season. Dye rushed for 103 yards and three touchdowns on only 14 carries, and also picked up 54 receiving yards and a touchdown. His longest reception was for an impressive 52 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per catch total.
Havana's win ended a seven-game drought on the road dating back to last season and puts them at 2-6. Dye and Havana will venture away from home to take on Macomb at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

This year, Olson has thrown 12 touchdowns while averaging 162.1 passing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after eight games last season, he was only averaging 73 passing yards per game.
