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!
Jaron Thomas Goes Supernova in Concord Victory
Jaron Thomas's big game helped extend Concord's winning streak to seven on Friday. Thomas turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 82 yards and two touchdowns.
If history really does repeat itself, Thomas might just drop another big game when he faces off against Wawasee on Friday. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Thomas saw the Warriors), he rushed for 204 yards and three touchdowns on only 12 carries.

A Season-Best Effort from Jamar Moton Leads Concord over Goshen
Concord was led to victory by Jamar Moton, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Moton rushed for 50 yards and three touchdowns, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
For the season, Moton has run in 4 touchdowns while averaging 15.7 rushing yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he had two rushing touchdowns.
Gamescore: 26.00
Big Game from Ramirez As Plymouth Won 14-10
Plymouth picked up their fourth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Exzander Ramirez. NorthWood had no answer to Ramirez as he rushed for 113 yards and a touchdown. Ramirez's rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his fourth straight game with at least 113 rushing yards dating back to last season.
On the season, Ramirez has thrown 4 touchdowns while averaging 69.4 passing yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 60.29 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 138.43 rushing yards.
Gamescore: 23.07
NorthWood had to settle for second on Friday, but Hayden Lechlitner sure wasn't going down easily. Lechlitner was dynamite, rushing for 54 yards and a touchdown. He got the majority of those rushing yards when he took off on a run that went for an incredible 58 yards.
NorthWood now has a losing record at 3-4. A feisty cat fight will be fought when Panthers faces off against Warsaw at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
