Christian (8 Man) 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!
Jones Came Up Big in Russell Christian Academy's 68-8 Victory
Ty Jones's rushing tear continued on Friday as he dropped his 14th-straight game with 106+ rushing yards dating back to last season. He rushed for 141 yards and four touchdowns on only seven carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 59 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
If the past is any indication, Jones could be in store for another big game when he takes on Tuscaloosa Christian on Friday. Jones rushed for 220 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 9.2 yards per carry, and also threw for 72 yards and a touchdown the last time he and Tuscaloosa Christian duked it out back in September.

Harrison Made His Presence Known in Cornerstone Christian's 44-0 Victory
Cornerstone Christian found a leader in Colby Harrison as the squad took down Clay County Christian Academy on Thursday. Harrison was unstoppable, rushing for 100 yards and a touchdown on only eight carries, while also catching a touchdown. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up a sack and making ten total tackles (4.0 for loss).
Harrison is probably looking forward to his next game, a home matchup against Jacksonville Christian Academy on Friday. Last Friday (the last time Harrison saw the Thunder), he rushed for 91 yards and three touchdowns.

Bo Morphis Sets Career High in Rushing Yards
Bo Morphis posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Friday. He rushed for 122 yards and a touchdown on only six carries, and also threw for 20 yards and a touchdown. His longest rush was for an impressive 50 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
For the year, Morphis has thrown 13 touchdowns while averaging 65.3 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 15.28 passer rating per game. This year he is averaging 112.22 passer rating.

Alex Anglin and Co. Win Fifth in a Row
Tuscaloosa Christian picked up their fifth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Alex Anglin. Victory Christian had no answer to Anglin as he threw for 118 yards and four touchdowns.
On the year, Anglin has thrown 21 touchdowns (and and only 4 picks) while averaging 134.8 passing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after eight games last season, he was only averaging 3.88 passing yards per game.
