2A Mid-State Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Friday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Lindann Fleming Dazzles in West Stokes Victory
Starting off the list is West Stokes's Lindann Fleming, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Fleming rushed for 157 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 7.9 yards per carry. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 73-yard run.
The win (which was West Stokes' fifth in a row) raised their record to 6-1. Fleming and West Stokes will square off against Reidsville at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.

Nate Akers Makes It Two for West Stokes
Another West Stokes player making an appearance on this list is Nate Akers. He picked up 45 receiving yards.
Akers' next match is against Reidsville on Friday, where he'll look to repeat that solid effort. The Wildcats had to take a loss when they last met the Rams, but Akers had little to do with the loss: he rushed for 48 yards and a touchdown, and also picked up 32 receiving yards. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

Walkertown Gets a Boost from Cartlidge in 23-0 Victory
Walkertown found a leader in Camereon Cartlidge as the team took down Morehead on Friday. Nobody could stop Cartlidge as he picked up a sack and made 11 total tackles (4.0 for loss).
Unfortunately for Morehead, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Cartlidge. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Cartlidge saw the Panthers), he made nine total tackles (6.0 for loss).

Cam Kelly's Big Game Leads Walkertown over Morehead

This year, Kelly has run in 13 touchdowns while averaging 180.8 rushing yards per game.
