Greater South Shore - North 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!
Silver Made His Presence Known in River Forest's 55-16 Win
Starting off the list is River Forest's Ayden Silver, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Silver threw for 217 yards and four touchdowns while completing 90% of his passes, and also rushed for 89 yards and a touchdown on only six carries. His passing game has become a key predictor of River Forest's success: the team is 3-1 when his passer rating is 100 or higher, but only 2-3 otherwise.
River Forest's win ended a three-game drought at home and bumped them up to 5-4. Silver and River Forest will welcome Knox at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Unfortunately for Hammond Bishop Noll, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Rowland. Rowland threw for 202 yards and three touchdowns on only 19 passes, and also rushed for 54 yards and two touchdowns the last time he and the Warriors duked it out back in October of 2023.
