Braden Brown Earns League's Top Spot

The victory was the fifth in a row for Triton Central, bringing their record for this year to 7-2. Brown and Triton Central will head out on the road to face off against Union County at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

D'marco Wilson Delivers Electric Effort Vs Beech Grove
D'Marco Wilson's big game helped extend Indianapolis Lutheran's winning streak to six on Friday. Nobody could stop Wilson as he rushed for 133 yards and a touchdown on only 12 carries, and also picked up 31 receiving yards and a touchdown. His longest rush was for an impressive 58 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
Indianapolis Lutheran's win was their third straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 8-1. Wilson and Indianapolis Lutheran will be playing in front of their home fans against Heritage Christian at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Jackson Willis and Co. Win Sixth in a Row
Indianapolis Lutheran picked up their sixth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Jackson Willis. Beech Grove had no answer to Willis as he threw for 154 yards and five touchdowns while completing 75% of his passes. Willis is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in the last three games he's played.
For the year, Willis has thrown 32 touchdowns (and and only 3 picks) while averaging 251.3 passing yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after nine games last season, he was only averaging 14.22 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 25.56 rushing yards.
Gamescore: 36.07
Ryder Pool Makes It Two for Monrovia
The second Monrovia player making an appearance here is Ryder Pool, and for good reason. He rushed for 81 yards and two touchdowns on only six carries, and also caught a touchdown.
This year, Pool has caught 2 touchdowns while averaging 12.8 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had three rushing touchdowns. This year he is already up to ten.
