Monsignor Martin A Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Saturday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Landon Welka Sets Career High in Rushing Yards
Landon Welka posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Saturday. He threw for 407 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 10.7 yards per attempt, and also rushed for 101 yards and a touchdown on only 11 carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 55 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
For the year, Welka has thrown 9 touchdowns (and and only 1 pick) while averaging 202.5 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 31.5 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 60.5 rushing yards.
Gamescore: 60.63
Hernandez Came Up Big in Canisius' 55-34 Win
The second Canisius player making an appearance here is Amir Hernandez, and for good reason. He made ten total tackles and defended two passes.
For the year, Hernandez has averaged 6.4 total tackles per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 10.8 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 68.6 rushing yards.
