A 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!

Matthew Metzger Drops League-Best Performance on Friday

Starting off the list is Northern Cass's Matthew Metzger, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Metzger turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday, picking up 102 receiving yards and a touchdown. The bulk of those receiving yards came from one huge play: a catch that gained an incredible 88 yards.

Northern Cass is on a four-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 3-5. Metzger and Northern Cass will challenge Hillsboro/Central Valley at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Matthew Hoppe Makes It Two for Northern Cass

Another Northern Cass player making an appearance on this list is Matthew Hoppe. He rushed for 91 yards.

Hoppe might have his next game, a home matchup with Hillsboro/Central Valley, circled on his calendar. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Hoppe saw the H-CV Burros), he rushed for 122 yards and a touchdown while picking up 7.6 yards per carry.

Gamescore: 25.60

Oakes had to settle for second on Friday, but Braysen Sagert sure wasn't going down easily. Central Cass had no answer to Sagert as he rushed for three yards.

On the season, Sagert has averaged 16.1 rushing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 4.29 rushing yards per game.

Gamescore: 24.55

A Constellation of Stars for Oakes

Another Oakes player making an appearance on this list is Christopher Titus. He picked up 41 receiving yards, and also rushed for 37 yards.

This year, Titus has averaged 34.6 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 3.43 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 31.43 rushing yards.

Gamescore: 21.33
