Suburban One - National Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Thursday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Central Bucks South Wins Eighth-Straight Thanks to Owen Pinkerton
Central Bucks South picked up their eighth consecutive win on Thursday thanks in part to Owen Pinkerton. Pinkerton turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 60 yards and a touchdown on only seven carries, while also throwing for 96 yards and two touchdowns.
Pinkerton might have his next game, a home matchup with Neshaminy, circled on his calendar. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Pinkerton saw the Skins), he rushed for 93 yards and two touchdowns on only seven carries, and also threw for 34 yards and a touchdown.

Connor Simkiss' Big Game Can't Quite Lead Central Bucks East over Neshaminy
Central Bucks East had to settle for second on Thursday, but Connor Simkiss sure wasn't going down easily. Simkiss was unstoppable, making 15 total tackles (1.0 for loss).
If history really does repeat itself, Simkiss might just drop another big game when he faces off against Pennridge on Friday. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Simkiss saw the Rams), he picked up 0.5 sacks and made 12 total tackles.
Gamescore: 24.50
Nick Sassano was a major factor in Neshaminy's victory over Central Bucks East on Thursday. Sassano was dynamite, picking up 48 receiving yards.
Neshaminy's win was their fourth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 6-2. Sassano will have a chance to log another big game when he takes on Central Bucks South on Friday.
