<h2>It’s almost playoffs!</h2>
Somebody pinch me and tell me it’s all just a dream. I can’t believe that we are already heading into week six, but that means my favorite time of the year is around the corner, the playoffs! The 2021 playoffs will have a new look as they will feature the top 16 teams per region. Although I am a fan of the eight-team system, I guess I can get used to the times. Let’s check out some of the top players through week five!

<strong><em><span style="font-size: 8pt;">[player_tooltip player_id="185827" first="Easton" last="Korody"], Carey Offensive Tackle </span></em></strong>
<h5><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="34394" first="Drew" last="Allar"], QB - Medina - 2022</strong></h5>
<ul>
<li>Week five was another showcase of why Allar is one of the best in the land at QB. Seven total touchdowns and over 400 yards passing. The Bees are 5-0</li>
</ul>
<h5><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="92620" first="Kaden" last="Holmes"], QB - Fremont Ross - 2023</strong></h5>
<ul>
<li>To start the season, Holmes and the Giants are 5-0; Kaden has a lot to do with that. Holmes has amassed 1800 yards passing and 25 total touchdowns to go along with it thus far.</li>
</ul>
<h5><strong>Denim Truss, QB - St. Francis de Sales - 2022</strong></h5>
<ul>
<li>Truss has become a household name in NW Ohio, and his last game made him a St Francis legend. Despite the loss to Fremont Ross, Denim broke the school record for throwing five touchdowns in a game. His final numbers in that games were 31-42, 435 yds, 5 TDs</li>
</ul>
<h5><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="185827" first="Easton" last="Korody"], Tackle - Carey - 2022 </strong></h5>
<ul>
<li>Korody is receiving interest from colleges on all levels, while his opponents have been getting syrup on their pancakes. Easton has been a standout at Tackle all season long, and the Blue Devils 4-1 record proves it.</li>
</ul>
<h5><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="198901" first="TJ" last="Takats"], QB - Perrysburg - 2023</strong></h5>
<ul>
<li>TJ has been playing outstanding all season long, and he seems only to get better as the season goes on. His ability to slip out of the pocket and break the defense’s spine with his running skills. Although Takats is committed to BGSU for baseball, I think he will have many football options.</li>
</ul>

<h5><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="186348" first="Dylan" last="Fisher"], DL - Central Catholic - 2022</strong></h5>
<ul>
<li>Fisher is one of the premier defenders in NW Ohio, and he plays as a linebacker and d-lineman for the Irish. Dylan has 26 Tackles, 8 for loss, and 1.5 sacks on a stacked Central Catholic defense.</li>
</ul>
<h5><strong>Armon Johnson, RB - Scott - 2023 </strong></h5>
<ul>
<li>Johnson is the straw that stirs the drink for the Scott Bulldogs this season. His success has reached new peaks this season, and coaches are taking notice. Scott is 4-1 on the season, and Johnson has rushed for over 700 yards with seven touchdowns.</li>
</ul>
<h5><strong>Trey Talboo, WR - St. Francis de Sales - 2022</strong></h5>
<ul>
<li>Talboo and his QB Denim Truss will also be joining the SFS record books for his four touchdown catches in week five. Talboo has over 700 receiving yards and nine touchdown catches.</li>
</ul>
<h5><strong>Javon Hudspeth, QB - Rogers - 2022 </strong></h5>
<ul>
<li>This season, Hudspeth is putting on a show showing his ability to run and throw, which has been vital for the rams. Although they do not have the record to show for "success," this team could win a league title this fall. Hudspeth has passed for over 700 yards.</li>
</ul>

<ul>
<li>Futbol or football doesn’t matter; Mason does well at both sports! He has scored goals on the soccer field for Midview and had three touchdowns in week five of the football season. He is someone to watch.</li>
</ul>
<h5><strong>Lincoln Barnes, LB - Ironton - 2023 </strong></h5>
<ul>
<li>Barnes is proving to be a force for the Tigers as he has a nose for the football. With 57 tackles on the season and five fumble recoveries, he is someone that opposing teams will have to worry about in the run game.</li>
</ul>
<h5><strong>Ty Perkins, WR - Ironton - 2023</strong></h5>
<ul>
<li>The big play wideout has made big plays all season long for Ironton. Perkins hasn’t put up the work solely as the entire WR crew has stepped it up this season. Ty has over 300 yards and five touchdowns on the season.</li>
</ul>

<h5 class="css-1dbjc4n r-18u37iz r-1wbh5a2"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="189509" first="Michael" last="Kilbane"], DE - St. Edwards - 2023 </strong></h5>
<ul>
<li>Kilbane is a force to be dealt with on the defensive line. Michael size and speed is gaining notice from school like Cincinnati and Akron, who give him offers after his week five performance. All-State talent and his recruitment will blow up.</li>
