Heart of the Plains (8 Man) 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!
Connor Fowler's Big Game Leads Fairfield over Pretty Prairie
Starting off the list is Fairfield's Connor Fowler, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Fowler rushed for 159 yards and two touchdowns on only 14 carries, and also threw for 57 yards and a touchdown. His longest rush was for an impressive 51 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
It'll be Battle of the Birds when Falcons dukes it out withNorwich at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Fowler will face off against Kyler Murphy, the Eagles' star quarterback. With so much talent on the field, fans are surely in for an exciting game. The only thing left to see is who brings home the W.

Reed Came Up Big in Central Christian's 28-12 Victory
Central Christian picked up their fifth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Nathan Reed. Reed was dynamite, throwing for 176 yards and two touchdowns, while also rushing for 32 yards and a touchdown. He also put in work on the defensive side of the ball, picking up a sack and making ten total tackles.
Reed and Central Christian will challenge Pretty Prairie at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The last time Reed took on the Bulldogs, he threw for 79 yards and two touchdowns on only six passes, and also rushed for 34 yards. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
