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!
Danbury's Losing Streak Is No More Thanks to Jake Okeefe
Thanks in part to Jake OKeefe, Danbury said goodbye to their eight-game losing streak dating back to last season. OKeefe did his part (and then some), rushing for 67 yards and two touchdowns, while also throwing for 108 yards and a touchdown on only eight passes for the 'W'.
Danbury's first win this season bumped their record up to 1-4. OKeefe and Danbury will have some time to savor their victory since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Staples at 7:00 p.m. on November 1st.
Gamescore: 35.20
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Friday Brayden Jagoe stepped things up a notch to give Trumbull the 'W'. Jagoe turned in nothing short of a gem, making eight total tackles and defending a pass. He didn't just play on offense: he also made eight total tackles and defended a pass in addition to snagging an interception.
Trumbull now has a winning record of 3-2. Jagoe and Trumbull will have some time to savor their victory since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Stamford at 7:00 p.m. on November 1st.
Gamescore: 33.25
D'angelo Came Up Big in Greenwich's 20-17 Defeat
Greenwich had to settle for second on Friday, but Michael D'Angelo sure wasn't going down easily. D'Angelo was dynamite, rushing for 110 yards and a touchdown on only 14 carries, while also throwing for 137 yards and a touchdown.
The loss snapped Greenwich's winning streak at four games and leaves them with a 4-1 record. D'Angelo and Greenwich will get a bit of extra time to process the defeat as their next game is a ways off. They'll take on St. Joseph at 6:00 p.m. on November 1st.
