Eastern Connecticut I 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!
Devin Cook Sets Career High in Rushing Yards
Starting off the list is Fitch's Devin Cook, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. On Friday Cook rushed for 222 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 8.9 yards per carry, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
Fitch's win was their fourth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 5-4. Cook and Fitch will have some time to savor their victory since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Ledyard at 10:00 a.m. on November 28th.

Allard Came Up Big in Killingly's 41-20 Victory
Hayden Allard's big game helped extend Killingly's winning streak to nine on Friday. Nobody could stop Allard as he rushed for 170 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 7.1 yards per carry. He is on a roll when it comes to rushing touchdowns, as he's now punched in two or more in the last seven games he's played.
Allard and Killingly will get to enjoy the win for a while: their next game is against Woodstock Academy at 10:00 a.m. on November 28th. The Redmen got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Centaurs, probably because Allard had a solid game then too: he rushed for 72 yards and a touchdown. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

Everton Brown Turns in Season-Best Effort
Everton Brown produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Killingly to the win on Friday. Brown rushed for 172 yards and two touchdowns on only 13 carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
On the season, Brown has run in 7 touchdowns while averaging 60.1 rushing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after nine games last season, he was only averaging 4.22 rushing yards per game.

For the season, Carter has averaged 43.3 passing yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after nine games last season, he had four rushing touchdowns. This year he is already up to 11.
