D1 District 7 (8 Man) Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played on Thursday and Friday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Thayer Central Gets a Boost from Souerdyke in 60-18 Victory
Starting off the list is Thayer Central's Sam Souerdyke, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Souerdyke rushed for 209 yards and four touchdowns on only 14 carries. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making six total tackles and defending two passes in addition to snagging two interceptions.
Thayer Central has been performing well recently as they've won three of their last four matches, which provided a nice bump to their 5-2 record this season. Souerdyke and Thayer Central will head out on the road to take on Exeter-Milligan/Friend at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Sandy Creek Wins Seventh-Straight Thanks to Ethan Shaw
Ethan Shaw was instrumental in extending Sandy Creek's winning streak to seven on Friday. Shaw did his part (and then some), rushing for 106 yards and three touchdowns, while also throwing for 183 yards and four touchdowns on only 15 passes for the 'W'. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making seven total tackles (1.0 for loss) and defending a pass.
Unfortunately for Exeter-Milligan/Friend, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Shaw. Shaw rushed for 85 yards and four touchdowns, and also threw for 247 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 11.8 yards per attempt the last time he and the Bobcats duked it out back in September of 2023.
