4A Region 10 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!
Sam Pehrson Goes Supernova in Murray Victory
Starting off the list is Murray's Sam Pehrson, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Pehrson rushed for 131 yards and three touchdowns on only 14 carries. He is on a roll when it comes to rushing touchdowns, as he's now punched in two or more in the last five games he's played dating back to last season.
The victory (which was Murray's third in a row) raised their record to 5-3. Pehrson and Murray are on the road again on Thursday to play Stansbury at 7:00 p.m.

Conner Whitehead Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Friday, Murray got the W thanks in part to Conner Whitehead playing the best football he has all season. Whitehead picked up 58 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up a sack and making four total tackles (2.0 for loss).
This season, Whitehead has run in 2 touchdowns while averaging 15.6 rushing yards per game.

Vaughn Gritzmacher Turns in Another Game with at Least Two Rushing Touchdowns
Vaughn Gritzmacher continued his hot streak on Friday by dropping his third-straight game (dating back to last season) with at least two rushing touchdowns. He rushed for 76 yards and two touchdowns on only ten carries. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making five total tackles and defending a pass.
Murray had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Gritzmacher it was a similar story. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Gritzmacher saw the Spartans), he rushed for 92 yards and two touchdowns on only five carries, and also picked up 70 receiving yards and a touchdown.

Park City Gets a Boost from Bodily in 37-7 Victory
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Friday Bash Bodily stepped things up a notch to give Park City the 'W'. Bodily turned in nothing short of a gem, throwing for 213 yards and a touchdown on only 18 passes, while also catching a touchdown.
Bodily and Park City will square off against Tooele at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. The game will pit Bodily up against the Buffaloes' star signal caller Gus Pater. So who wins this QB-duel? There's only one way to know for sure.

Eli Warner Delivers Electric Performance Vs Jordan
Another Park City player making an appearance on this list is Eli Warner. He rushed for 82 yards and three touchdowns.
Warner is probably looking forward to his next game, a road matchup against Tooele on Friday. Warner rushed for 272 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 17.0 yards per carry, and also caught a touchdown the last time he and the Buffaloes duked it out back in October of 2023.
