Terry Walker Iii Dazzles in Lawrence Central Win
Starting off the list is Lawrence Central's Terry Walker Iii, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Walker Iii rushed for 101 yards and two touchdowns on only ten carries, and also threw for 161 yards and two touchdowns on only 14 passes. The dominant performance gave him a new career-high in rushing yards.
Walker Iii and Lawrence Central will venture away from home to challenge Ben Davis at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Bears had to take a loss when they last met the Giants, but Walker Iii had little to do with the loss: he threw for 313 yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 36 yards. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
