GIAA 8-Man Region 1 (8 Man) 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!
Levi Murphey's Big Game Leads Westminster Schools of Augusta over Westminster Christian Academy
Levi Murphey was instrumental in extending Westminster Schools of Augusta's winning streak to 13 on Friday. Westminster Christian Academy had no answer to Murphey as he threw for 301 yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 60 yards and two touchdowns on only seven carries. Murphey is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in the last nine games he's played dating back to last season.
Murphey must have Westminster Christian Academy's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Murphey threw for 332 yards and four touchdowns on only 16 passes, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground the last time he and the Lions duked it out back in October of 2023.
