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!
Bryce Wallum Turns in Season-Best Performance
On Friday, Troup got the W thanks in part to Bryce Wallum playing the best football he has all season. Wallum rushed for 166 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 8.3 yards per carry, and also threw for 224 yards and three touchdowns while completing 80% of his passes.
A feisty cat fight will be fought when Tigers dukes it out withWinona at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. The last time Wallum took on the Wildcats, he rushed for 41 yards and a touchdown, and also picked up 31 receiving yards. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

Josh Smith Delivers Electric Performance Vs Buffalo
Josh Smith was a major factor in Arp's victory over Buffalo on Friday. Smith was unstoppable, rushing for 99 yards and three touchdowns on only ten carries. Arp is undefeated when Smith posts two or more rushing touchdowns, but 1-2 otherwise.
Arp has been performing well recently as they've won three of their last four matches, which provided a nice bump to their 4-2 record this season. Smith and Arp will get to enjoy the win for a while: their next game is against Elkhart at 7:30 p.m. on October 18th.

Judson Dotson Sets Career High in Rushing Yards
Judson Dotson produced his most outstanding game to date while leading West Rusk to the win on Friday. Dotson rushed for 133 yards and two touchdowns on only seven carries, and also threw for 149 yards and three touchdowns on only ten passes, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He has become a key player for West Rusk: the team is undefeated when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns, but 0-3 otherwise.
Dotson will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant performance when he faces off against New Diana on Friday. The match will pit Dotson up against the Eagles' star quarterback Dejuan Johnson. So who wins this QB-duel? There's only one way to know for sure.
