2A Southeastern 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!
Yoshua Mcbryde's Big Game Leads St. Pauls over Clinton
Starting off the list is St. Pauls's Yoshua Mcbryde, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Mcbryde rushed for 222 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 12.3 yards per carry.
If history really does repeat itself, Mcbryde might just drop another big game when he faces off against Midway on Friday. Mcbryde rushed for 214 yards and three touchdowns on only 11 carries the last time he and the Raiders duked it out back in October of 2023.

West Bladen's Losing Streak Is No More Thanks to Hezekiah Blanks-Adams
Thanks in part to Hezekiah Blanks-Adams, West Bladen said goodbye to their three-game losing streak. Blanks-Adams turned in nothing short of a gem on Friday, rushing for 187 yards and three touchdowns on only 14 carries. His longest rush was for an incredible 99 yards.
This year, Blanks-Adams has run in 6 touchdowns while averaging 68.3 rushing yards per game.

Ahmarie White Turns in Season-Best Performance
On Friday, West Bladen got the W thanks in part to Ahmarie White playing the best football he has all season. White rushed for 204 yards and two touchdowns, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
On the season, White has run in 3 touchdowns while averaging 43.6 rushing yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 4.38 rushing yards per game.

Ke'mari Mcneil and Co. Win Seventh in a Row
Midway picked up their seventh consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Ke'Mari McNeil. McNeil wasn't messing around, making five total tackles. The match was his fifth straight with two or more rushing touchdowns.
Midway pushed their record up to 8-1 with the victory, which was their third straight at home. McNeil and Midway will venture away from home to face off against St. Pauls at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Setzer Made His Presence Known in St. Pauls' 49-6 Victory
The second St. Pauls player making an appearance here is Theophilus (Theo) Setzer, and for good reason. He rushed for 101 yards and two touchdowns on only five carries. St. Pauls is undefeated when Setzer posts 100 or more rushing yards, but 1-2 otherwise.
Setzer and St. Pauls will be playing in front of their home fans against Midway at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Bulldogs got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Raiders, probably because Setzer had a solid game then too: he threw for 160 yards and a touchdown while completing 75% of his passes. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
