2A Foothills Top Player Performances of the Week
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!
Fisher Leftwich Dazzles in North Surry Victory
Starting off the list is North Surry's Fisher Leftwich, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Leftwich picked up 140 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also punched in two rushing scores. He is trending in the right direction considering he's improved his point production for four straight games.
If history really does repeat itself, Leftwich might just drop another big game when he faces off against West Wilkes on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Leftwich saw the Blackhawks), he picked up 105 receiving yards and two touchdowns.

East Surry's win was their eighth straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 4-2. Watson and East Surry are taking a road trip to challenge North Wilkes at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
