AAAAA Region 7 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!
Nick Peal Tops All Others This Week
Starting off the list is Roswell's Nick Peal, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Peal picked up a sack, forced a fumble, and made two total tackles. He didn't just play on offense: he also picked up a sack, forced a fumble, and made two total tackles.
If history really does repeat itself, Peal might just drop another big game when he faces off against Lanier on Friday. Back in November of 2023 (the last time Peal saw the Longhorns), he made seven total tackles (3.0 for loss) and defended two passes.

For the year, Smith has thrown 11 touchdowns while averaging 179 passing yards per game.

Luke Nickel and Co. Win 17th in a Row
Luke Nickel was instrumental in extending Milton's winning streak to 17 on Friday. Nickel threw for 218 yards and four touchdowns while completing 89.5% of his passes, good enough for us to rate the performance as the best he's had all season long.
Milton's victory was their eighth straight on the road dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 7-0. Their road trip will continue as they head out to face Gainesville at 8:00 p.m. on Friday.
