Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played from last Thursday through Saturday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!

Omari Mcneal's Big Game Leads Blanche Ely over Dillard

Starting off the list is Blanche Ely's Omari Mcneal, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Mcneal rushed for 75 yards and three touchdowns, and also threw for 212 yards and a touchdown while completing 75% of his passes. The dominant performance gave him a new career-high in rushing yards.

The win was the third in a row for Blanche Ely, bringing their record for this year to 6-2. A feisty cat fight will be fought when Tigers challenges Coconut Creek at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Lincoln Graf Makes It Two for Atlantic

Keeping Desinor company is Lincoln Graf, a fellow Atlantic player. He threw for 259 yards and two touchdowns while completing 86.7% of his passes, and also punched in a rushing score.

This year, Graf has thrown 19 touchdowns while averaging 229.3 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had four rushing touchdowns. This year he is already up to eight.
