Gainesville Gets a Boost from Kilmer in 35-20 Defeat
Starting off the list is Gainesville's Colton Kilmer, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Kilmer threw for 250 yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 82 yards and a touchdown.
Unfortunately for Patriot, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Kilmer. Kilmer threw for 332 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 11.9 yards per attempt, and also rushed for 58 yards and a touchdown the last time he and the Pioneers duked it out back in October of 2023.
