Ameil Braswell Dazzles in Hillside Win
Starting off the list is Hillside's Ameil Braswell, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Braswell rushed for 102 yards and three touchdowns on only six carries. That's the most rushing yards he has posted since back in October of 2023.
Braswell is probably looking forward to his next game, a road matchup against Northern Durham on Friday. Braswell rushed for 51 yards and three touchdowns on only seven carries the last time he and the Knights duked it out back in October of 2023.

Big Game from Blue As Jordan Won 44-13
Amareon Blue continued his hot streak on Friday by dropping his fourth-straight game (dating back to last season) with at least 112 rushing yards. He rushed for 136 yards.
Blue must have Chapel Hill's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. When Blue last faced the Tigers back in September of 2023, he rushed for 174 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 10.2 yards per carry, and also picked up 37 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Gamescore: 18.48
Keeping Blue company is Landon Melton, a fellow Jordan player. He rushed for 87 yards on only five carries, and also threw for 24 yards and a touchdown.
For the season, Melton has thrown 10 touchdowns (and and only 1 pick) while averaging 123.8 passing yards per game.

Tyler Jackson Makes Top Five
Rounding off our Top Five is Tyler Jackson of Chapel Hill. Jackson rushed for 55 yards and a touchdown on only six carries.
Jackson and Chapel Hill will look to defend their home field on Thursday against Riverside-Durham at 7:00 p.m. The last time Jackson took on the Pirates, he rushed for 68 yards and a touchdown. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
