Zavier Stephens Drops League-Best Performance on Friday

Starting off the list is Elyria's Zavier Stephens, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Stephens picked up a sack and made ten total tackles (3.0 for loss). Thanks to that strong showing, he's now averaging 5.6 total tackles per game.

Levi Springer Makes It Two for Elyria

Keeping Stephens company is Levi Springer, a fellow Elyria player. He picked up 67 receiving yards and a touchdown. He showed off some serious burst, lighting up the secondary with a catch for 56 yards.

For the season, Springer has averaged 5.6 total tackles per game. It gets even more impressive: after eight games last season, he was only averaging 0.88 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 3.13 rushing yards.

Jones Posts Huge Game in 49-10 Defeat

Midview had to settle for second on Friday, but Dior Jones sure wasn't going down easily. Nobody could stop Jones as he picked up 117 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 59 yards.

Midview has been struggling recently as they've lost four of their last five matches, which put a noticeable dent in their 4-4 record this season. Jones and Midview will take on Elyria at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
