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!
A Season-Best Effort from Evan Benfer Leads Monroeville over Plymouth
On Friday, Monroeville got the W thanks in part to Evan Benfer playing the best football he has all season. Benfer wasn't messing around, rushing for 152 yards and two touchdowns on only six carries, while also throwing for 51 yards and two touchdowns while completing 71.4% of his passes. The match was his third straight with two or more rushing touchdowns dating back to last season. His longest rush was for an impressive 51 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
The victory for Monroeville keeps them at an undefeated 9-0. Benfer and Monroeville will welcome St. Paul at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 56.45
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Friday Karter Goon stepped things up a notch to give Crestview the 'W'. Goon turned in nothing short of a gem, picking up 82 receiving yards and a touchdown. The bulk of those receiving yards came from one huge play: a catch that gained an incredible 53 yards.
Crestview has been performing well recently as they've won four of their last five contests, which provided a nice bump to their 4-5 record this season. Goon and Crestview will welcome Mapleton at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
