Knox Morrow 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!
A Season-Best Performance from Jaxson Wenger Leads Northmor over East Knox
On Friday, Northmor got the W thanks in part to Jaxson Wenger playing the best football he has all season. Wenger picked up 203 receiving yards and three touchdowns. He was no stranger to the big play, connecting on a big catch that went for 59 yards.
The win for Northmor keeps them at an undefeated 7-0. Wenger and Northmor will be playing in front of their home fans against Mt. Gilead at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Sipes Made His Presence Known in Fredericktown's 39-14 Win
Fredericktown found a leader in Blake Sipes as the team took down Loudonville on Friday. Nobody could stop Sipes as he rushed for 194 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 10.8 yards per carry.
Sipes must have Loudonville's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. When Sipes last faced the Redbirds back in September of 2023, he threw for 197 yards and three touchdowns on only 13 passes, and also rushed for 82 yards and a touchdown.

Cyren Wallace Turns in Season-Best Effort
On Friday, Danville got the W thanks in part to Cyren Wallace playing the best football he has all season. Wallace rushed for 102 yards and three touchdowns on only eight carries. He got the majority of those rushing yards when he took off on a run that went for an incredible 53 yards.
Danville has been performing well recently as they've won three of their last four games, which provided a nice bump to their 5-2 record this season. Wallace and Danville will face off against Centerburg at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

AJ Bower and Co. Win Seventh in a Row
AJ Bower was instrumental in extending Northmor's winning streak to seven on Friday. Bower did his part (and then some), throwing for 341 yards and four touchdowns on perfect 13-for-13 passing for the 'W'.
Bower and Northmor will look to defend their home field on Friday against Mt. Gilead at 7:00 p.m. The Golden Knights got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Indians, probably because Bower had a solid game then too: he threw for 172 yards and three touchdowns. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
