Loveland is third on the team in total points with 23.
AJ Corrado
Burrell, sr., WR/DB
The Bucs receiver has been the go-to guy in the passing game through the first five weeks. In Burrell’s rout of Deer Lakes on Friday, Corrado established season highs in receptions (11), receiving yards (172) and touchdowns (2). For the season, he has 34 catches for 595 yards and four scores. He also is a presence on defense, where he has 24 tackles, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery.
