AA Region 1 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!
AJ Lindsey Tops All Others This Week
Starting off the list is Landrum's AJ Lindsey, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Lindsey made ten total tackles (1.0 for loss).
Lindsey must have Blacksburg's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Lindsey saw the Wildcats), he forced two fumbles and made 11 total tackles (3.0 for loss).

Javen Cook's Big Game Leads Clinton over Chesnee

Tushawan Richardson Makes It Two for Clinton
Another Clinton player making an appearance on this list is Tushawan Richardson. He threw for 178 yards and three touchdowns on only 14 passes.
On the year, Richardson has thrown 7 touchdowns while averaging 94.7 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 18.17 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 38.17 rushing yards.

Poore Came Up Big in Landrum's 28-6 Win
Titus Poore's big game helped extend Landrum's winning streak to five on Friday. Poore turned in nothing short of a gem, picking up 101 receiving yards, while also punching in a touchdown on the ground. The bulk of those receiving yards came from one huge play: a catch that gained an incredible 52 yards.
For the season, Poore has averaged 62.2 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had one rushing touchdown. This year he is already up to six.
