Jonah Ganoe Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Starting off the list is Smethport's Jonah Ganoe, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Ganoe rushed for 178 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 7.7 yards per carry. The performance once again pushed his average rushing yardage north of 100 yards per game (102.7).
Smethport is on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-6. Ganoe and Smethport will face off against Cameron County at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Zucal Posts Huge Game in 41-14 Victory
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Friday Malakai Zucal stepped things up a notch to give Cameron County the 'W'. Zucal turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 130 yards and two touchdowns on only 12 carries. He didn't just play on offense: he also made seven total tackles (1.0 for loss) and defended a pass.
If the past is any indication, Zucal could be in store for another big game when he takes on Smethport on Friday. Zucal rushed for 195 yards while picking up 8.1 yards per carry the last time he and the Hubbers duked it out back in September.
Gamescore: 43.45
Owen Rounsville Dazzles in Smethport Defeat
Owen Rounsville posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Friday. He rushed for 81 yards and a touchdown on only eight carries. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making six total tackles and defending a pass.
This season, Rounsville has averaged 53.3 receiving yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 12.57 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 37.86 rushing yards.

Shepard is probably looking forward to his next game, a home matchup against Smethport on Friday. Back in September (the last time Shepard saw the Hubbers), he picked up 89 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
