Troy Kuhn
Kiski Area, Sr., TE/LB
Kuhn has proven to be a reliable receiver with Jack Colecchi and Tracey Morris in the Cavaliers passing game. He hopes to be a factor this week against Class 5A No. 2 Penn Hills after hauling in touchdowns of 72 and 10 yards from Ryne Wallace last week against Fox Chapel.
Deonte Ross
Valley, Sr., RB/LB
The bruising tailback rushed for more than 200 yards and two scores last week against Imani Christian. Ross has a team-best seven touchdowns this season, and he hopes to add a few more Friday evening against Class 2A No. 4 Steel Valley.
JD Sykes
Riverview, Sr., RB/LB
The Raiders hope to pick up their first win of the season Friday against Leechburg, and Sykes expects to be a big part of the game plan at both running back and linebacker. He leads the team in tackles and is an offensive focal point in the backfield with senior teammate Devon Binz.
Christian Vokes
Springdale, Jr., RB/DB
The Dynamos face a stiff challenge this week in defending WPIAL and PIAA Class A champion Jeannette. Vokes hopes to make an impact against the Jayhawks, and he fared well last Friday in Springdale’s setback to Bishop Canevin. He had 125 yards and TD runs of 60 and 22 yards on seven carries.
