Division I 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!
Chris Ciarniello Sets Career High in Rushing Yards
Starting off the list is North Kingstown's Chris Ciarniello, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. On Friday Ciarniello made eight total tackles, good enough to also set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
For the year, Ciarniello has averaged 10.2 total tackles per game. It gets even more impressive: after five games last season, he was only averaging 12.8 receiving yards per game. This year he is averaging 46.2 receiving yards.

Jeremy Seidi and Co. Win Third in a Row
Jeremy Seidi's big game helped extend Bishop Hendricken's winning streak to three on Friday. Seidi did his part (and then some), picking up a sack and making five total tackles for the 'W'. He was no stranger to the big play, turning on the jets for a run that went for 62 yards.
On the season, Seidi has averaged 4.1 total tackles per game and for the season has 4 sacks. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 1.43 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 61.29 rushing yards.
Gamescore: 31.80
Cornell Came Up Big in Cranston West's 28-21 Loss
Cranston West had to settle for second on Friday, but Kelan Cornell sure wasn't going down easily. Cornell was unstoppable, throwing for 190 yards and a touchdown, while also rushing for 46 yards and a touchdown.
This year, Cornell has thrown 11 touchdowns while averaging 151.9 passing yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 96.29 passing yards per game.
