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!
Big Game from Stimpson As Jesuit Fell 58-35
Starting off the list is Jesuit's Joe Stimpson, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Stimpson picked up 99 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 81 yards and a touchdown on only 11 carries.
Jesuit's loss ended a five-game streak of wins at home dating back to last season and dropped them to 5-2. Stimpson's next match is against Southridge on Friday, where he'll look to repeat that solid effort.
