Thanks to a strong opening round in the postseason, North Hagerstown athletes continue to lead in several stat categories over multiple sports.
Two Hubs, Michael Stewart and Donald Rivers, have been men among boys on the football field and combine to top our leaderboards in four different places. Stewart leads locals in both rushing yards (1,185) and TDs (14), while Rivers ranks No. 1 amongst area defenders in both tackles (147) and sacks (7). Both players have an opportunity to build on those totals in a playoff game this weekend.
Staying on the gridiron, Waynesboro has posted its final stats online. It was a winless campaign for the Indians, but the squad has to be excited for the expected return of sophomore QB Brayden Heimbuch, who finishes his season ranked No. 2 locally in passing yards (1,257) and TDs (9).
Aleah Merrbaugh, another North Hagerstown standout, leads area girls volleyball players with 289 digs and has also racked up 28 aces, good for No. 3 in the area.
There were few changes on the girls soccer leaderboards as our last remaining squad, Fairfield, was shut out in the District 3-1A title game. Led by Gemma Phelan, the area’s leader in both goals (35) and assists (14), the Knights have at least one more game to play at states this week.
Our fall sports leaderboard is based on stats for the seven teams in the LocalNews1.org coverage area — Waynesboro, Greencastle-Antrim, Chambersburg, Fairfield, North Hagerstown, South Hagerstown, and Smithsburg — that have been reported to maxpreps.com, athletic.net, penntrackxc.com, and directly to LN1.
