AAAAAA Region 7 Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Wednesday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Brayden Tyson Turns in Season-Best Effort
On Wednesday, Brookwood got the W thanks in part to Brayden Tyson playing the best football he has all season. Tyson rushed for 362 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 19.1 yards per carry, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 82-yard run.
Parkview's probably not too fond of Tyson given he always seems to get the better of them. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Tyson saw the Panthers), he rushed for 149 yards and a touchdown while picking up 8.8 yards per carry, and also picked up 43 receiving yards.

Kelly Made His Presence Known in Peachtree Ridge's 46-28 Victory
Darnell Kelly was a major factor in Peachtree Ridge's win over Duluth on Wednesday. Duluth had no answer to Kelly as he threw for 237 yards and four touchdowns on only 19 passes, and also rushed for 48 yards and a touchdown.
Unfortunately for Duluth, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Kelly. Back in November of 2023 (the last time Kelly saw the Wildcats), he rushed for 46 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 179 yards and a touchdown.

Jahmir Joseph Dazzles in Duluth Loss
While Jahmir Joseph delivered a dominant effort on Wednesday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Duluth. Joseph was dynamite, rushing for 96 yards and a touchdown on only 11 carries, while also picking up 49 receiving yards.
Duluth's defeat dropped their record down to 4-3. A feisty cat fight will be fought when Wildcats faces off against Parkview at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.

Bryce Green Delivers Best Effort of Season
