Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played on Thursday and Friday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
A Season-Best Performance from Josh Roberson Leads Chapel Hill over Riverside-Durham
Chapel Hill was led to victory by Josh Roberson, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Thursday. Roberson rushed for 133 yards and three touchdowns on only 12 carries.
Roberson must have Riverside-Durham's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Roberson rushed for 88 yards and two touchdowns, and also caught a touchdown the last time he and the Pirates duked it out back in October of 2023.

Tyler Jackson Sets Career High in Rushing Yards
Chapel Hill was led to victory by Tyler Jackson, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Thursday. Jackson rushed for 164 yards and a touchdown on only 13 carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest rush was for an incredible 71 yards.
Jackson is probably looking forward to his next game, a home matchup against Northern Durham on Friday. Jackson rushed for 119 yards and a touchdown the last time he and the Knights duked it out back in October of 2023.

Blue Posts Huge Game in 56-0 Victory
Amareon Blue was a major factor in Jordan's win over East Chapel Hill on Thursday. Nobody could stop Blue as he rushed for 90 yards and two touchdowns, and also picked up 45 receiving yards and a touchdown.
If history really does repeat itself, Blue might just drop another big game when he faces off against Riverside-Durham on Friday. Blue rushed for 154 yards and four touchdowns on only seven carries the last time he and the Pirates duked it out back in October of 2023.

Jamarion Ross Delivers Electric Effort Vs Chapel Hill
While Jamarion Ross delivered a dominant performance on Thursday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Riverside-Durham. Ross was unstoppable, rushing for 155 yards on only 15 carries, while also picking up 34 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Ross will have a chance to log another big game when he takes on Jordan on Friday. Ross will face off against Amareon Blue on Friday, the Falcons' star rusher. 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.
