Dionne Sims Earns League's Top Spot
Starting off the list is King's Dionne Sims, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Sims' rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 106 rushing yards. He showed off some serious burst, turning on the afterburners on one carry for 67 yards.
King now has a winning record of 3-2. Sims and King will host Summer Creek at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Blake Thomas' Big Game Can't Quite Lead Summer Creek over Atascocita
Summer Creek was sadly handed a defeat on Friday, but Blake Thomas did his best to prevent it. Despite the loss, Thomas was still balling out as he rushed for 112 yards and a touchdown, and also threw for 250 yards and a touchdown.
Thomas might have his next game, a home matchup with King, circled on his calendar. When Thomas last faced the Panthers back in October of 2023, he rushed for 59 yards and a touchdown, and also threw for 115 yards and two touchdowns.

Deion Deblanc Delivers Best Effort of Season
Deion Deblanc produced his most outstanding game to date while leading North Shore to the win on Thursday. Deblanc picked up 81 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 69 yards and a touchdown. He showed off some serious burst, turning on the afterburners on one carry for 67 yards.
Deblanc and North Shore will square off against Goose Creek Memorial at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. The game will pit Deblanc up against the Patriots' star wideout Daymon Allen. The only thing left to do is find out who's the greater deep ball threat. You'll have to watch the game to know for sure.
