2A Foothills 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!
Fisher Leftwich Goes Supernova in North Surry Victory
Starting off the list is North Surry's Fisher Leftwich, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Leftwich picked up 140 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also punched in two rushing scores. He is trending in the right direction considering he's improved his point production for four straight games.
If the past is any indication, Leftwich could be in store for another big game when he takes on West Wilkes on Friday. Leftwich picked up 105 receiving yards and two touchdowns the last time he and the Blackhawks duked it out back in October of 2023.

Watson Came Up Big in East Surry's 49-0 Victory
East Surry picked up their third consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Troy Watson. Watson was dynamite, rushing for 151 yards and two touchdowns on only 12 carries.
East Surry's win was their eighth straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 4-2. Watson's next game is against North Wilkes on Friday, where he'll look to repeat that solid effort.

Kam Mcknight Turns in Another Game with at Least Three Passing Touchdowns
The second North Surry player making an appearance here is Kam McKnight, and for good reason. He threw for 286 yards and three touchdowns while completing 88.9% of his passes.

On the season, McKnight has thrown 21 touchdowns while averaging 247.4 passing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after eight games last season, he was only averaging 127 passing yards per game.
