This Week's Top Player Performances from Across the League
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!
Case Posts Huge Game in 23-7 Victory
Starting off the list is Douglas County's Nolan Case, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Case rushed for 252 yards and one score while picking up 13.3 yards per carry, and also picked up 55 receiving yards and one TD. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 90-yard run.
Case must have Castle View's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. When Case last faced the Sabercats back in September of 2024, he picked up 112 receiving yards and one touchdown, and also rushed for 31 yards.
