Cascades - West 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!
Carson Playford Earns League's Top Spot
Starting off the list is Jonesville's Carson Playford, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Playford rushed for 102 yards and a touchdown on only five carries, and also caught a touchdown. He is becoming a predictor of Jonesville's success: when he posts at least 80 rushing yards the team is 3-1 (and 1-2 when he doesn't).
The win (which was Jonesville's third in a row) raised their record to 4-3. Playford and Jonesville will look to defend their home field on Friday against Homer at 7:00 p.m.

A Season-Best Effort from Caidan Kissinger Leads Homer over Columbia Central
On Friday, Homer had to settle for second even though Caidan Kissinger put up the best numbers he has all season. Kissinger picked up 101 receiving yards, and also rushed for 70 yards, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
Homer's loss was their eighth straight on the road dating back to last season, which dropped their record down to 1-6. Kissinger and Homer will head out to face off against Jonesville at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
