A Region 1 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!

Matthew Metzger Drops League-Best Performance on Friday

Starting off the list is Northern Cass's Matthew Metzger, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Metzger produced his best game of the campaign on Friday: he picked up 102 receiving yards and a touchdown. He got the majority of those receiving yards when he pulled down a pass and took off for a gain of 88 yards.

Northern Cass is on a four-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 3-5. Metzger and Northern Cass will face off against Hillsboro/Central Valley at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Gamescore: 31.02

Matthew Hoppe Makes It Two for Northern Cass

Keeping Metzger company is Matthew Hoppe, a fellow Northern Cass player. He rushed for 91 yards.

If history really does repeat itself, Hoppe might just drop another big game when he faces off against Hillsboro/Central Valley on Friday. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Hoppe saw the H-CV Burros), he rushed for 122 yards and a touchdown while picking up 7.6 yards per carry.

Gamescore: 25.60

Oakes had to settle for second on Friday, but Braysen Sagert sure wasn't going down easily. Despite the loss, Sagert was still balling out as he rushed for three yards.

This year, Sagert has averaged 16.1 rushing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 4.29 rushing yards per game.

Gamescore: 24.55

A Constellation of Stars for Oakes

Another Oakes player making an appearance on this list is Christopher Titus. He picked up 41 receiving yards, and also rushed for 37 yards.

For the year, Titus has averaged 34.6 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 3.43 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 31.43 rushing yards.

Gamescore: 21.33
