5A Southern Idaho - 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!

Zyan Crockett Drops League-Best Effort on Friday

Starting off the list is Skyline's Zyan Crockett, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. On Friday Crockett rushed for 78 yards on only nine carries, and also picked up 76 receiving yards. The performance marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in October of 2023.

If the past is any indication, Crockett could be in store for another big game when he takes on Thunder Ridge on Friday. When Crockett last faced the Titans back in September of 2023, he picked up 104 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 37 yards.

Preston dropped their record down to 1-5 with the defeat, which was their fifth straight on the road dating back to last season. Perry will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant effort when he faces off against Century on Friday.
