5A South Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played on Thursday and Friday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Grady Ohman Goes Supernova in Lakeside Victory
Starting off the list is Lakeside's Grady Ohman, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Ohman rushed for 257 yards while picking up 9.5 yards per carry. Those 257 rushing yards gave him a new career-high.
Ohman must have Hot Springs's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. When Ohman last faced the Trojans back in November of 2023, he rushed for 182 yards and three touchdowns.

Big Game from Noble Jr As Arkansas Won 43-0
The second Arkansas player making an appearance here is Tony Noble Jr, and for good reason. He rushed for 87 yards and a touchdown on only eight carries, and also threw for eight yards and a touchdown. His longest rush was for an impressive 65 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
On the season, Noble Jr has averaged 12.7 receiving yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after ten games last season, he was only averaging 31.3 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 50.7 rushing yards.
Gamescore: 29.02
Trent Haygood Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Another Camden Fairview player making an appearance on this list is Trent Haygood. He picked up 183 receiving yards and a touchdown. He's now once again averaging 100+ receiving yards (104.4) per game. He really caught the secondary sleeping when he pulled down a catch that went for 83 yards.
Parkview had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Haygood it was a similar story. Haygood picked up 60 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground the last time he and the Patriots duked it out back in November of 2023.
