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!
Enlow Came Up Big in East Newton's 63-21 Defeat
Starting off the list is East Newton's River Enlow, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Enlow rushed for 111 yards and two touchdowns on only 13 carries.
Unfortunately for Seneca, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Enlow. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Enlow saw the Indians), he rushed for 140 yards and a touchdown.

Collin Umfleet Turns in Season-Best Performance
Sadly, Collin Umfleet posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Monett over Cassville on Friday. Umfleet rushed for 70 yards and three touchdowns.
On the year, Umfleet has averaged 22.6 receiving yards per game.
Gamescore: 28.48
Aurora had to settle for second on Friday, but Brayden Allen sure wasn't going down easily. Nobody could stop Allen as he picked up 60 receiving yards.
Aurora has been struggling recently as they've lost four of their last five games, which put a noticeable dent in their 2-6 record this season. Allen's next match is against Cassville on Friday, where he'll look to repeat that solid effort.
