Three Rivers (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!
Lawson Posts Huge Game in 46-0 Win
Starting off the list is Marmaton Valley's Brayden Lawson, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Lawson threw for 164 yards and three touchdowns on only nine passes, and also rushed for 56 yards and a touchdown on only seven carries. He is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in the last five games he's played dating back to last season.
Lawson is probably looking forward to his next game, a road matchup against Crest on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Lawson saw the Lancers), he threw for 198 yards and five touchdowns on only 13 passes.

Jensin Barker was a major factor in Crest's win over Centre on Friday. Barker was unstoppable, rushing for 68 yards and two touchdowns.
This year, Barker has run in 10 touchdowns while averaging 77.5 rushing yards per game.

Jaedon Granere Delivers Best Effort of Season
Marmaton Valley was led to victory by Jaedon Granere, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday.

The match was his fourth straight with two or more receiving touchdowns dating back to last season.
This season, Granere has caught 9 touchdowns while averaging 70.8 receiving yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after five games last season, he was only averaging 46.2 receiving yards per game.
