Asa Wegrzyn Tops All Others This Week

For the season, Wegrzyn has averaged 6.5 total tackles per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had four rushing touchdowns. This year he is already up to 15.

Dominick Roth Makes It Two for Lincoln Christian
Keeping Wegrzyn company is Dominick Roth, a fellow Lincoln Christian player. He picked up 71 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 61 yards. He torched the secondary when he pulled down a catch that went for 71 yards.
On the season, Roth has averaged 59.7 rushing yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after six games last season, he was only averaging 0.5 receiving yards per game. This year he is averaging 16.5 receiving yards.
