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!
Tug Wilbur Delivers Electric Effort Vs Judge Memorial Catholic
Starting off the list is Summit Academy's Tug Wilbur, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Wilbur picked up three sacks and made nine total tackles (4.0 for loss). He is on a roll when it comes to total tackles, as he's now made five or more in the last nine games he's played dating back to last season.
The victory (which was Summit Academy's third in a row) raised their record to 4-4. Wilbur's next matchup is against Providence Hall on Friday, where he'll look to repeat that solid effort.

Texas Wilde's Big Game Can't Quite Lead Judge Memorial Catholic over Summit Academy
Judge Memorial Catholic was sadly handed a defeat on Friday, but Texas Wilde did his best to prevent it. Wilde turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 144 yards and a touchdown while picking up 7.2 yards per carry. He showed off some serious burst, turning on the afterburners on one carry for 57 yards.
This is the second loss in a row for Judge Memorial Catholic and nudges their season record down to 2-6. Wilde and Judge Memorial Catholic will have a little extra prep time after the loss as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on American Leadership Academy at 7:00 p.m. on October 18th.
