Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances across Friday and Saturday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Danbury's Losing Streak Is No More Thanks to Jake Okeefe
Danbury's eight-game losing streak dating back to last season is now nothing but a memory thanks in part to Jake OKeefe. OKeefe turned in nothing short of a gem on Friday, rushing for 67 yards and two touchdowns, while also throwing for 108 yards and a touchdown on only eight passes.
Danbury's first victory this season bumped their record up to 1-4. OKeefe and Danbury will welcome Westhill at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 35.20
Brayden Jagoe was a major factor in Trumbull's win over McMahon on Friday. Jagoe was unstoppable, making eight total tackles and defending a pass. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making eight total tackles and defending a pass in addition to snagging an interception.
Trumbull now has a winning record of 3-2. Jagoe and Trumbull will be playing in front of their home fans against Greenwich at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Michael D'angelo Goes Supernova in Greenwich Loss
Greenwich had to settle for second on Friday, but Michael D'Angelo sure wasn't going down easily. D'Angelo was unstoppable, rushing for 110 yards and a touchdown on only 14 carries, while also throwing for 137 yards and a touchdown.
Greenwich moved to 4-1 with that defeat, which also ended their four-game winning streak. D'Angelo and Greenwich will challenge Trumbull at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Trumbull Gets a Boost from Sevilla in 28-18 Victory
The second Trumbull player making an appearance here is Lorenzo Sevilla, and for good reason. He picked up three sacks, made seven total tackles, and defended two passes. He is on a roll when it comes to total tackles, as he's now made five or more in the last five games he's played dating back to last season.
This season, Sevilla has averaged 7.5 total tackles per game and for the season has 4 sacks. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 2.25 total tackles per game.
