. The Arkansas commit has had a solid season but has yet to have that “wow” moment. The first one came on Friday when he ran for 228 yards and three touchdowns on just 13 carries. He was part of a Union rushing attack that absolutely dominated Mustang all night long. Green showed why he’s one not only one of the top running backs, but one of the top players in the state.

would not let that happen. Harris has lost just two games in his entire career, he wouldn’t be losing back to back games. He helped lead a comeback win over Bishop McGuinness, in which the final score makes it look like they handled the Irish. Harris threw for 322 yards and three touchdowns on 18-27 passing. He also added the go-ahead score on the ground. The Titans trailed 35-14 at one point in the second quarter. They would outscore the Irish 42-0 the rest of the way.

has been on this list already this season. It seems like he’s in the running every other week as he continues to put up big numbers throwing and running the ball. In their blowout win over Crossings Christian, May was once again on top of his game and could not be stopped. He threw for 220 yards and a touchdown on 15-28 passing. He also added 151 yards and three touchdowns on 17 carries. May continues to show why he’s already on our Player Of The Year Watchlist as he has been dominant all season long and shows no signs of slowing down.

Gilkey finished with nine catches for 236 yards and all four of Drummond’s touchdown passes on the evening. Drummond has put up monster numbers and Gilkey has been on the receiving end of many of those passes.
