<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1887922' first='David' last='Croom'] (Plainfield East, 2027, RB, 5'8, 165)</strong> has been one of the breakout stars early in the season. The junior back has already rushed for 496 yards and sits at 11 touchdowns, showing great balance between vision and explosiveness. Croom runs with purpose, and his knack for finishing drives has quickly made him one of the top scoring threats in Illinois.</p>

<p><strong>Owen Voorhees (2026, ATH, 6'0, 160)</strong> has done a little bit of everything through three games, and the numbers back it up. With 142 rushing yards, 362 receiving yards, and 11 total touchdowns, Voorhees' versatility is on full display. He can line up anywhere on the field and produce, making him a nightmare matchup for opposing defenses.</p>
