FROM KEITH GROLLER

Statistician Duke Helm does a fantastic job crunching the numbers on all football teams in District 11 and updating the media on approaching milestones.

I don't know how he finds the time to get all of the stats from every school compiled, but he does it.

Duke has sent out his first weekly report detailing the numbers from last week's season-opening games.

Here's a look at the top performances on a district-wide basis, courtesy of Duke:
