C1 District 4 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!
Brady Eichelberger Goes Supernova in O'neill Victory
O'Neill picked up their ninth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Brady Eichelberger. Eichelberger did his part (and then some), rushing for 135 yards and two touchdowns on only nine carries for the 'W'.
Eichelberger must have Schuyler's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Eichelberger saw the Warriors), he rushed for 110 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries.

Brenden Bolling Delivers Best Performance of Season
Pierce was led to victory by Brenden Bolling, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Bolling rushed for 83 yards and two touchdowns, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
Pierce moved to 3-4 with that win, which also ended their four-game losing streak. Bolling and Pierce will challenge Lakeview at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 33.93
Wayne had to settle for second on Friday, but Calvin Ankeny sure wasn't going down easily. Nobody could stop Ankeny as he made nine total tackles.
Pierce had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Ankeny it was a similar story. Ankeny made 16 total tackles (2.0 for loss) the last time he and the Bluejays duked it out back in September of 2023.
