Section 3 8-Man - North/West (8 Man) Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances across Friday and Saturday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Luke Robillard Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Starting off the list is Tupper Lake's Luke Robillard, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Robillard rushed for 116 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 7.3 yards per carry. The performance once again pushed his average rushing yardage north of 100 yards per game (100.2). He didn't just play on offense: he also picked up two sacks and made eight total tackles.
If the past is any indication, Robillard could be in store for another big game when he takes on Waterville on Friday. When Robillard last faced the Indians back in October of 2023, he rushed for 152 yards and a touchdown.

Highers Came Up Big in Morrisville-Eaton's 55-6 Win
Keeping Mudge company is Carter Highers, a fellow Morrisville-Eaton player. He picked up 110 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He showed off some serious burst, lighting up the secondary with a catch for 50 yards.
Highers is probably looking forward to his next game, a road matchup against Bishop Grimes on Saturday. When Highers last faced the Cobras back in September of 2023, he rushed for 139 yards and two touchdowns on only 13 carries, and also picked up 67 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
