District 4 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!
D'angelo Duarte's Big Game Leads Alexandria City over West Springfield
Starting off the list is Alexandria City's D'Angelo Duarte, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Duarte rushed for 216 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 8.6 yards per carry. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 75-yard run.
Alexandria City's win ended a seven-game drought on the road dating back to last season and puts them at 2-3. Duarte and Alexandria City will challenge South County at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday.

A Season-Best Effort from Payton Holmes Leads Lake Braddock over Woodson
On Friday, Lake Braddock got the W thanks in part to Payton Holmes playing the best football he has all season. Holmes rushed for 116 yards and three touchdowns on only seven carries. Lake Braddock is undefeated when Holmes posts two or more rushing touchdowns, but 1-2 otherwise.
Holmes and Lake Braddock will have some time to savor their win since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Alexandria City at 7:00 p.m. on October 18th. Holmes will face off against D'Angelo Duarte, the Titans' star rusher. Will the contest be decided in the trenches? We'll have our answer very soon.

Michael Suris Delivers Best Performance of Season
Michael Suris produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Lake Braddock to the win on Friday. Suris threw for 180 yards and three touchdowns while completing 85.7% of his passes, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground.
Suris and Lake Braddock will get to enjoy the win for a while: their next game is against Alexandria City at 7:00 p.m. on October 18th. Suris will face off against Alpha Jalloh, the Titans' star quarterback. With so much talent on the field, fans are surely in for an exciting game. The only thing left to see is who brings home the W.

Brady Davies Turns in Season-Best Performance
On Friday, West Springfield had to settle for second even though Brady Davies put up the best numbers he has all season. Davies rushed for 49 yards and two touchdowns, and also picked up 95 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Davies is probably looking forward to his next game, a home matchup against Robinson on Friday. Davies rushed for 54 yards and a touchdown, and also threw for 60 yards and a touchdown the last time he and the Rams duked it out back in October of 2023.

A Season-Best Effort from Mark-Anthony Whyte Leads West Springfield over Alexandria City
Sadly, Mark-Anthony Whyte posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead West Springfield over Alexandria City on Friday. Whyte rushed for 157 yards while picking up 9.2 yards per carry. The effort marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in September of 2023.
Alexandria City had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Whyte it was a similar story. When Whyte last faced the Titans back in September of 2023, he rushed for 206 yards and three touchdowns on only seven carries.
