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 Delivers Electric Performance Vs Surry Central
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 continues to roll, besting his previous point total in each of the last four games he's played.
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 Made His Presence Known in East Surry's 49-0 Win
Troy Watson was instrumental in extending East Surry's winning streak to three on Friday. Watson did his part (and then some), rushing for 151 yards and two touchdowns on only 12 carries for the 'W'.
East Surry's victory was their eighth straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 4-2. Watson will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant effort when he faces off against North Wilkes on Friday.

Another Game with at Least Three Passing Touchdowns from Kam Mcknight
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. He is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in the last four games he's played dating back to last season.
For the season, McKnight has thrown 21 touchdowns while averaging 247.4 passing yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 127 passing yards per game.
