Noah Gillette
Highlands, jr., LB
The Golden Rams used a big defensive performance to upend rival Knoch last week, and Gillette (5-10, 192) was at the heart of it all with 11 tackles. In three games, he has 46 tackles and three sacks.
Ross Greece
Kiski Area, sr., RB
Greece (6-0, 215) will be counted on to help the Cavaliers get in the win column this week. Last week against Latrobe, he carried the ball 19 times for 83 yards and a touchdown. Greece got into the act on special teams with an 88-yard kickoff return for a score.
Coulter Robb
Plum, sr., RB
Robb (6-1, 170) had just 6 rushing yards on four carries through Plum’s first three games. But he got a chance to step up against Franklin Regional last week, and he tallied 116 yards on 17 carries in a 33-7 win.
Deonte Ross
Valley, sr., RB
The power tailback compiled 178 total yards in a losing effort last Friday at Class AA No. 1 Steel Valley. Ross (6-1, 215) had 98 yards rushing and a touchdown to go along with an 80-yard TD reception.
