1A Central (8 Man) Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Thursday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
A Season-Best Performance from Dustin Otteson Leads Tonopah over Indian Springs
Dustin Otteson produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Tonopah to the win on Thursday. Otteson's rushing production has been exceptional as that marked his eighth straight game with at least 144 rushing yards.
Indian Springs's probably not too fond of Otteson given he always seems to get the better of them. When Otteson last faced the Thunderbirds back in October of 2023, he rushed for 94 yards, and also picked up 81 receiving yards.
Gamescore: 73.85
Bullington Posts Huge Game in 34-30 Loss
While Blake Bullington delivered a dominant effort on Thursday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Round Mountain. Nobody could stop Bullington as he rushed for 169 yards and a touchdown, and also threw for 139 yards and two touchdowns. He also put in work on the defensive side of the ball, making seven total tackles and defending a pass.
For the season, Bullington has thrown those 2 touchdowns while averaging 33.7 passing yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after seven games last season, he had one rushing touchdown. This year he is already up to nine.
Gamescore: 49.87
Mitchell Miller and Co. Win Eighth in a Row
Mitchell Miller was instrumental in extending Tonopah's winning streak to eight on Thursday. Miller was dynamite, rushing for 45 yards and a touchdown.
Indian Springs's probably not too fond of Miller given he always seems to get the better of them. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Miller saw the Thunderbirds), he picked up 67 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also punched in two touchdowns on the ground.
