Mikey Proctor's Big Game Leads Crestview over Labrae
The second Crestview player making an appearance here is Mikey Proctor, and for good reason. He made 13 total tackles (1.0 for loss).
Proctor must have LaBrae's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Proctor made 13 total tackles (2.0 for loss) the last time he and the Vikings duked it out back in October of 2023.
