1A Region 2 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!
Rayshon Coleman Has Career Rushing Day
Starting off the list is Florala's Rayshon Coleman, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. On Friday Coleman rushed for 221 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 8.5 yards per carry, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He didn't just play on offense: he also made 25 total tackles and defended two passes in addition to snagging an interception.
The victory (which was Florala's third in a row) raised their record to 6-2. A feisty cat fight will be fought when Wildcats faces off against Red Level on Friday.

Cayden Adkins Dazzles in Elba Victory
Cayden Adkins's big game helped extend Elba's winning streak to five on Thursday. Nobody could stop Adkins as he picked up a sack and made 16 total tackles (5.0 for loss). He got the majority of those rushing yards when he took off on a run that went for an incredible 61 yards.
If history really does repeat itself, Adkins might just drop another big game when he faces off against Georgiana on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Adkins saw the Panthers), he made ten total tackles (2.0 for loss).
