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!

East Newton Gets a Boost from Enlow in 63-21 Loss

Starting off the list is East Newton's River Enlow, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Enlow rushed for 111 yards and two touchdowns on only 13 carries.

Seneca had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Enlow it was a similar story. When Enlow last faced the Indians back in October of 2023, he rushed for 140 yards and a touchdown.

Collin Umfleet Turns in Season-Best Performance

Monett came up short on Friday despite Collin Umfleet delivering his best game to date. Umfleet rushed for 70 yards and three touchdowns.

On the year, Umfleet has averaged 22.6 receiving yards per game.

Gamescore: 28.48

Aurora had to settle for second on Friday, but Brayden Allen sure wasn't going down easily. Nobody could stop Allen as he picked up 60 receiving yards.

Aurora has been struggling recently as they've lost four of their last five matches, which put a noticeable dent in their 2-6 record this season. Allen and Aurora will face off against Cassville on Friday.
