Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances across Friday and Saturday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Gavin Pittington's Big Game Can't Quite Lead North Park over Peetz
Starting off the list is North Park's Gavin Pittington, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Pittington rushed for 244 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 7.6 yards per carry, and also picked up 84 receiving yards and a touchdown. The dominant performance gave him a new career-high in rushing yards.
North Park is on a nine-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-5. Pittington and North Park will take on Briggsdale at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday.
Gamescore: 77.58
Big Game from Kuntz As Fleming Won 54-0
Grant Kuntz was instrumental in extending Fleming's winning streak to five on Friday. Nobody could stop Kuntz as he rushed for 77 yards and two touchdowns, and also picked up 45 receiving yards and a touchdown. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, forcing a fumble and making eight total tackles (3.0 for loss) in addition to snagging an interception which he returned one-yard for a touchdown.
This year, Kuntz has caught 3 touchdowns while averaging 25 receiving yards per game.
Gamescore: 66.63
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Friday Dylan Wagner stepped things up a notch to give Peetz the 'W'. Wagner was unstoppable, rushing for 103 yards and three touchdowns, while also throwing for ten yards and a touchdown.
This year, Wagner has thrown 2 touchdowns while averaging 21.3 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 2.83 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 88.5 rushing yards.

He rushed for 144 yards while picking up 9.0 yards per carry, and also threw for 47 yards and two touchdowns. He's now once again averaging 100+ rushing yards (104.5) per game.
On the year, Schreiner has thrown 5 touchdowns (and and only 1 picks) while averaging 31.5 passing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after six games last season, he was only averaging 27.83 rushing yards per game.
