Mid Northwest - Gopher-Gold 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!

Franky Meagher Delivers Electric Effort Vs Kerkhoven-Murdock-Sunburg

Franky Meagher was instrumental in extending Upsala/Swanville's winning streak to six on Friday. Nobody could stop Meagher as he threw for 130 yards and four touchdowns on only 12 passes.

Kerkhoven-Murdock-Sunburg's probably not too fond of Meagher given he always seems to get the better of them. When Meagher last faced the Fighting Saints back in October of 2023, he threw for 202 yards and a touchdown on only 19 passes, and also punched in two touchdowns on the ground.

Gamescore: 35.47

Jett Olson Turns in Another Game with at Least 108 Rushing Yards

Jett Olson's rushing tear continued on Friday as he dropped his fifth-straight game with 108+ rushing yards dating back to last season. He made nine total tackles.

This season, Olson has averaged 7.5 total tackles per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 20.67 receiving yards per game. This year he is averaging 41 receiving yards.

Gamescore: 22.83

Brody Kircher Delivers Best Effort of Season

On Friday, Upsala/Swanville got the W thanks in part to Brody Kircher playing the best football he has all season. Kircher picked up 63 receiving yards and two touchdowns.

On the season, Kircher has caught 3 touchdowns while averaging 48.5 receiving yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he had one receiving touchdown.

Gamescore: 20.80

Big Game from Jones As Kerkhoven-Murdock-Sunburg Fell 29-0

Another Kerkhoven-Murdock-Sunburg player making an appearance on this list is Aaron Jones. He picked up a sack and made 11 total tackles (2.0 for loss). Jones is crushing it when it comes to total tackles: he's made at least five every time he's taken the field this season.

On the season, Jones has averaged 8.3 total tackles per game and for the season has 4 sacks.

Gamescore: 20.00

Carson Primus and Co. Win Sixth in a Row

Carson Primus was instrumental in extending Upsala/Swanville's winning streak to six on Friday. Primus did his part (and then some), rushing for 60 yards for the 'W'.

For the year, Primus has averaged 19.2 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging eight rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 42.5 rushing yards.

Gamescore: 17.37
