OFFENSIVE CHAMPION OF THE WEEK: JAKE SEIBERT, K, 2020

Seibert is sometimes a bit of a forgotten man in 2020 class mainly because he's a kicker, but he did more than just kick for his high school team on Friday night.

Playing for Cincinnati powerhouse La Salle High School, Seibert starts at wide receiver for the Lancers, and he is no slouch at the position.

Facing Mansfield, Seibert had six catches for 110 yards and three touchdowns, two of which came in the first half. After each of his touchdowns, Seibert teed the ball up and put it through the uprights. Not only did he score three touchdowns, but he also kicked five extra points and knocked a 35-yard field goal, making him the choice for offensive champion of the week.

Other notable offensive performances from Ohio State commitments:

• Jack Sawyer had 205 total yards and four touchdowns in his first game at quarterback for Pickerington North.
• Julian Fleming, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, and Gee Scott Jr. each had at least 105 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
• Cameron Martinez continues to run wild in Michigan, where he had 240 yards and three touchdowns on Friday.
• Jayden Ballard, Ohio State's 2021 wide receiver commitment, had more than 90 yards and two touchdowns.
• Ohio State's most recent commitment, linebacker Reid Carrico, also had more than 150 all-purpose yards and a pair of touchdowns.

DEFENSIVE CHAMPION OF THE WEEK: REID CARRICO, LB, 2021

In Carrico's first game since committing to Ohio State, Carrico showed exactly why he was so highly coveted by Ohio State and Al Washington. He totaled 15 tackles in the game, including three tackles for loss. 

Carrico is the heart and soul of his high school team. With Carrico in the fold that tradition to continue, Ohio State hopes to continue its tradition of strong linebacker play. To have double-digit tackles and a few stops behind the line is impressive and earns Carrico the defensive champion of the week.

Other notable defensive performances from Ohio State commitments:

• Jack Sawyer got his ninth sack of the season through only three games.
• Mitchell Melton once again had double-digit tackles, including one sack.
• Clark Phillips had his fourth interception of the season.
