#PRZTN: Week Nine POTW/Game Balls

<h2>Last week provided a lite schedule across the state but we still had some top notch games along with some high level individual performances, including the ones listed below! </h2>     East Tennessee    '24 (QB) [player_tooltip player_id='207312' first='Brady' last='Hammonds'] - Gatliburg-Pittman    * 20-27 passing for 398 yds & 6 TD's *   - Hammonds has been a steady, consistent performer for his Highlanders offense all season long and last week, he had his best game yet in their win over Northview Academy. The Highlanders sit at 7-1 on the season and Hammonds has been a major factor why but has also boosted his recruiting stock further, turning himself into a legit college prospect.   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/GPHSHighlanders/status/1581088065141243905?s=20&t=L4ysnqPA8VdKu3-fupHv9g </div></figure>   Middle Tennessee    (DE/LB) Darian Crenshaw - Marshall Co.    * 7 tcks, 4.5 TFL, 1 QBH & 3 sacks *   - The Tigers continued their winning ways last week in their road win over Glencliff where Crenshaw was a major factor on defense, causing havoc in the Colts backfield all night long. So far in the 2022 season, this Tigers edge rusher has been a consistent disruptor in the opposing backfield and putting up numbers that warrant All-State honors by season's end.    West Tennessee    (RB) Kevin Finch - USJ    * 21 carr. for 204 yds & 3 TD's (3 rec. for 20 yds & 1 TD) *   - The Bruins have found a consistent performer at running back now with Finch and last week he had a monster game, scoring in two different ways while picking up several key first downs. This is an under the radar back that sports good size and shows on film the ability to be patient with explosive traits. Look for the Bruins to lean on Finch as the head into postseason play next month.    ----------------------   Other Top Performers    - (QB) [player_tooltip player_id='150308' first='Jack' last='Risner'] - Blackman:  10-15 passing for 251 yds & 2 TD's    - (QB) [player_tooltip player_id='150311' first='Landon' last='Ramsey'] - Unaka:  10-16 passing for 169 yds & 2 TD's; 12 carr. for 116 yds & 3 TD's    - (QB) Garrett Weekly - Friendship Chrst.:  16-22 passing for 236 yds & 1 TD (85 yds rushing)   - (QB) [player_tooltip player_id='102233' first='Brock' last='Glenn'] - Lausanne:  6-9 passing for 129 yds & 2 TD's    - ‘24 (QB) [player_tooltip player_id='207322' first='Carter' last='Smith'] - Hardin Co.:  10-14 passing for 214 yds & 3 TD's    - ‘24 (QB) [player_tooltip player_id='323145' first='Whit' last='Muschamp'] - Baylor:  11-17 passing for 190 yds & 3 TD's    - ‘24 (QB) [player_tooltip player_id='398083' first='Silas' last='Teat'] - Marshall Co.:  7-9 passing for 162 yds & 4 TD's    - ‘24 (QB) [player_tooltip player_id='239409' first='Wesley' last='Deck'] - Heritage: 15-22 passing for 195 yds; 16 carr., 59 yds rushing & 2 TD's   <figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/redzone/uploads/2022/10/lramsey.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-483333" width="384" height="256" /><figcaption>Photo: Elizabethton Star</figcaption></figure>   —-------------------   - (RB) [player_tooltip player_id='273371' first='Elijah' last='Gibbs'] - Farragut:  22 carr. for 219 yds & 3 TD's (2 rec. for 16 yds)   - (RB) [player_tooltip player_id='102176' first='DeSean' last='Bishop'] - Karns:  28 carr. for 213 yds & 4 TD's    - (RB) [player_tooltip player_id='102181' first='Mason' last='Bowman'] - Monterey:  19 carr. for 200 yds & 3 TD's    - (RB) Malik Arnett - Sweetwater:  26 carr. for 156 yds & 3 TD's    - (RB) [player_tooltip player_id='102256' first='Jai' last='Hundley'] - Oak Ridge:  12 carr. for 157 yds & 4 TD's    - (RB) [player_tooltip player_id='150315' first='Darius' last='Johnson'] - Beech:  13 carr. for 160 yds & 2 TD's    - (RB) Tylin Irvin - Hardin Co.:  7 carr. for 133 yds & 3 TD's    - (RB/Ath) Nate Stephens - Elizabethton:  10 carr. for 104 yds & 4 TD's (2 tcks on Def.)   - (RB/S) [player_tooltip player_id='150477' first='Tison' last='Johnson'] - Mo-West:  16 carr. for 101 yds 3 TD's    - (RB) [player_tooltip player_id='200429' first='Caleb' last='Hampton'] - Baylor:  14 carr. for 90 yds & 2 TD's    - ‘24 (RB) Zori Randolph - Giles Co.:  24 carr. for 168 yds 3 TD's    - ‘24 (RB) De'Jauvis Dozier - Oak Ridge: 16 carr. for 148 yds, 2 rec. for 62 yds, 4 total TD's   - ‘24 (RB) Luke Dickens - Station Camp:  14 carr. for 106 yds & 1 TD (11-15 passing for 143 yds & 1 TD)   - ‘24 (RB) [player_tooltip player_id='186297' first='Ashton' last='Jones'] - DCA: 4 carr. for 106 yds & 3 TD's (Also 1 TD receiving)   <figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/redzone/uploads/2022/02/jhundley.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-285977" width="309" height="309" /></figure>   —----------------------   - (WR) [player_tooltip player_id='102184' first='Justin' last='Brown'] - Blackman:  6 rec. for 164 yds & 2 TD's (1 rushing TD)    - (WR) [player_tooltip player_id='337227' first='Josh' last='Mailander'] - Pope Prep:  4 rec. for 185 yds & 2 TD's (One pick six on Def.)   - ‘24 (WR) [player_tooltip player_id='149163' first='Carlos' last='Orr'] - Gatlinburg-Pittman:  4 rec. for 130 yds & 1 TD (2 tcks on Def.)   - (TE) [player_tooltip player_id='201093' first='Dalton' last='Restelli'] - Baylor:  5 rec. for 66 yds & 2 TD's    - (Ath) [player_tooltip player_id='273374' first='Daveon' last='Shenault'] - Fulton:  6 rec. for 181 yds & 2 TD's; 8 carr. for 67 yds & 1 TD (2 tcks, 1 Int on Def.)   - (Ath) [player_tooltip player_id='201100' first='Zecheriah' last='Prince'] - East Robertson:  21 carr. for 157 yds & 1 TD (2 tcks, 1 FR & 1 PD on Def.)   - ‘24 (Ath) [player_tooltip player_id='149400' first='Whittman' last='Whaley'] - Gatlinburg-Pittman:  8 rec. for 166 yds & 3 TD's (7 tcks, 1 FR on Def.)   - ‘24 (Ath) [player_tooltip player_id='149160' first='Brock' last='Montgomery'] - FCS: 9 rec. for 145 yds & 1 TD (4 tcks, 1 Int on Def.)   - ‘24 (Ath) [player_tooltip player_id='150282' first='Braylon' last='Harmon'] - Knox.
