7A Region 2 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!
Aj Alexander Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Friday, Dothan got the W thanks in part to Aj Alexander playing the best football he has all season. Alexander's rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his sixth straight game with at least 136 rushing yards dating back to last season. His longest rush was for an incredible 74 yards.
If the past is any indication, Alexander could be in store for another big game when he takes on Auburn on Friday. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Alexander saw the Tigers), he rushed for 141 yards and two touchdowns.

A Season-Best Effort from Cameron Creighton Leads Auburn over Carver Montgomery
On Friday, Auburn got the W thanks in part to Cameron Creighton playing the best football he has all season. Creighton picked up three sacks and made five total tackles (4.0 for loss).
The victory for Auburn keeps them at an undefeated 8-0. Creighton will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant performance when he faces off against Dothan on Friday.
Gamescore: 27.50
Another Game with at Least Five Total Tackles from Caleb Pitts
On Friday, Auburn got the W thanks in part to Caleb Pitts playing the best football he has all season. Pitts wasn't messing around, picking up three sacks and making six total tackles. The matchup was his third straight with five or more total tackles dating back to last season.
Pitts and Auburn will challenge Dothan at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Tigers got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Wolves, probably because Pitts had a solid game then too: he made 11 total tackles (2.0 for loss). Can he match (or beat) that performance?
