2024 Week 1 Offensive Stat Leaders!

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Week 1 is in the books and it was absolutely electric. Week 1 was loaded with elite performances from kids across all classes and all areas of the state. As the race for state leaders in each category took off, I'm pleased to present some of the top talents who showed up to start the 2024 seasons and currently sit atop the state leaderboards! All stats are courtesy of MNFootballHub which is run by the Minnesota Star Tribune.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"large"} --> <p
