Pocket - Big School 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!
Jett Goldsberry Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Jett Goldsberry's big game helped extend Heritage Hills's winning streak to six on Friday. Goldsberry was excellent, rushing for 147 yards and two touchdowns on only five carries, while also throwing for 53 yards and a touchdown. He's now once again averaging 100+ rushing yards (102.8) per game. He showed off some serious burst, turning on the afterburners on one carry for 62 yards.
If the past is any indication, Goldsberry could be in store for another big game when he takes on Washington on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Goldsberry saw the Hatchets), he threw for 141 yards and four touchdowns, and also rushed for 46 yards and a touchdown.

Washington Gets a Boost from Lesure in 35-18 Defeat
Washington had to settle for second on Friday, but Xavion Lesure sure wasn't going down easily. Lesure was dynamite, picking up 38 receiving yards and a touchdown, while also rushing for 70 yards.
For the year, Lesure has caught those 1 touchdown while averaging 22.1 receiving yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after eight games last season, he was only averaging 49.25 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 93.75 rushing yards.

Hunter Meredith Goes Supernova in Heritage Hills Victory
Hunter Meredith's big game helped extend Heritage Hills's winning streak to six on Friday. Meredith turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 102 yards and two touchdowns. He got the majority of those rushing yards when he took off on a run that went for an incredible 61 yards.
Princeton's probably not too fond of Meredith given he always seems to get the better of them. Meredith rushed for 125 yards and two touchdowns on only five carries the last time he and the Tigers duked it out back in October of 2023.
Gamescore: 39.70
Boonville found a leader in Grant Davis as the team took down Washington on Friday. Davis was dynamite, rushing for 53 yards and a touchdown.
On the season, Davis has thrown 6 touchdowns while averaging 85.6 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 16.63 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 59.25 rushing yards.

Tyler Rinehart Makes It Two for Boonville
