Ohio Capital - Ohio 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!
Ashton Allen Turns in Season-Best Performance
New Albany was led to victory by Ashton Allen, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Allen rushed for 147 yards and a touchdown on only eight carries, and also picked up 31 receiving yards and a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest rush was for an impressive 56 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
On the year, Allen has caught 2 touchdowns while averaging 16.5 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had three rushing touchdowns. This year he is already up to six.
