Before we get into stats for week 1, please keep in mind that Tampa Lax Report did not receive stats from a majority of the teams we cover. Also understand that some teams played three easy opponents in week 1 while some teams only played a single opponent. This shouldn’t be considered a complete list of outstanding performances. Regardless, we feel that recognizing each of these athletes for their performances still serves a positive purpose.
