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!
Tommy Offord Drops League-Best Effort on Friday
Starting off the list is Palatka's Tommy Offord, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Offord rushed for 109 yards and two touchdowns on only 11 carries, and also threw for 83 yards and two touchdowns while completing 77.8% of his passes.
Palatka's win bumped their record up to 5-3. Offord and Palatka will have some time to savor their victory since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Father Lopez at 7:00 p.m. on November 1st.

Kaleb Woods Dazzles in Newberry Win
Kaleb Woods was instrumental in extending Newberry's winning streak to five on Friday. Woods turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 135 yards and three touchdowns on only 11 carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 63 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
If history really does repeat itself, Woods might just drop another big game when he faces off against Williston on Friday. Woods rushed for 157 yards and a touchdown while picking up 7.5 yards per carry, and also caught a touchdown the last time he and the Red Devils duked it out back in October of 2023.

On the year, Addison has run in 7 touchdowns while averaging 79 rushing yards per game.
