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!

A Season-Best Performance from Tre Leonard Leads South Florence over Wilson

On Friday, South Florence got the W thanks in part to Tre Leonard playing the best football he has all season. Leonard rushed for 181 yards and two touchdowns on only nine carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. South Florence is undefeated when Leonard posts two or more rushing touchdowns, but 1-2 otherwise.

Leonard will have a chance to log another big game when he takes on Lower Richland on Friday. Leonard will face off against Christian 'Freight Train' Wilson on Friday, the Diamond Hornets' star rusher. Will the game be decided in the trenches? We'll have our answer very soon.
