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!
Keaton Lawson Turns in Season-Best Effort
On Friday, Columbus East got the W thanks in part to Keaton Lawson playing the best football he has all season. Lawson picked up 138 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 49 yards and a touchdown.
Columbus East pushed their record up to 6-3 with the victory, which was their third straight on the road. Lawson and Columbus East will get to enjoy the win for a while: their next game is against Franklin Community at 7:00 p.m. on November 1st.

Big Game from Robertson As Floyd Central Won 55-0
Sebastion Robertson's big game helped extend Floyd Central's winning streak to three on Friday. Robertson was unstoppable, rushing for 147 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 8.6 yards per carry. He is becoming a predictor of Floyd Central's success: when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns the team is undefeated (and 1-2 when he doesn't).
Floyd Central's victory bumped their record up to 6-2. Robertson and Floyd Central will have some time to savor their win since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Castle at 7:00 p.m. on November 1st.

Kyson Villarreal Delivers Electric Performance Vs Bedford North Lawrence
The second Columbus East player making an appearance here is Kyson Villarreal, and for good reason. He threw for 219 yards and three touchdowns while completing 73.7% of his passes, and also rushed for 75 yards on only ten carries.
Bedford North Lawrence had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Villarreal it was a similar story. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Villarreal saw the Stars), he threw for 222 yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 73 yards.

A Season-Best Effort from Jaylan Johnson Leads Seymour over Bloomington South
Sadly, Jaylan Johnson posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Seymour over Bloomington South on Friday. Johnson picked up 93 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Seymour now has a losing record at 4-5. Johnson and Seymour will have a little extra prep time after the defeat as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on East Central at 7:30 p.m. on November 1st.
