OC Top 5 – Performances on the Prep Gridiron Friday Night

1 Matt Gatski (RH Lutheran NW RB) – Gatski busted through all the GAPS in the Plymouth Christian defense in NW's thrashing of the Eagles, rumbling for a career-high 235 yards on the ground and 3 rushing TDs

2 Steve O'Connell (Clawson QB) – Replacing a Trojans legends in the graduated Rob Feeman, O'Connell played out of his mind in his first start under center, picking apart the MH Bishop Foley defense for 294 yards and 2 TD's through the air on 17-23 passing.

3 James McDonald (Troy RB) – Forget a farm, the Colts' Old' McDonald had an effort worthy of an entire royal estate  in his team's thorough defeat of Romeo, rushing for 160 yards and 2 TDs

4 Drew Williamson (Milford RB) – Beck gone, Williamson in: playing his first game as the Mavericks starting ball carrier replacing a stat-monger in Cody Beck, Williamson rushed for 173 yards and 4 TDs

5 Jake Duzey (Troy Athens WR) – Look out Big Ten, this future Hawkeye is about to get on a HOT STREAK. With 172 all-purpose yards, including a 50 yd TD reception on offense and 3 sacks on defense in the Red Hawks 12-point win over Warren Mott, Duzey (committed to Iowa) has the Athens faithful talking playoffs for the first time in a while.
