Caleb Brickhouse Delivers Electric Effort Vs Bullard-Havens
Starting off the list is Platt RVT's Caleb Brickhouse, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Brickhouse rushed for 160 yards and three touchdowns on only 14 carries. Those 160 rushing yards gave him a new career-high.
This is the second loss in a row for Platt RVT and nudges their season record down to 1-3. Brickhouse and Platt RVT will get a bit of extra time to process the loss as their next game is a ways off. They'll take on Thames River co-op [Norwich RVT/Grasso RVT/St. Bernard] at 6:00 p.m. on October 18th.

Big Game from Hill As ATI [Abbott RVT/Immaculate] Won 44-0
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Saturday Jayvionne Hill stepped things up a notch to give ATI [Abbott RVT/Immaculate] the 'W'. Nobody could stop Hill as he rushed for 72 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 32 yards and a touchdown. He showed off some serious burst, turning on the afterburners on one carry for 50 yards.
If the past is any indication, Hill could be in store for another big game when he takes on O'Brien RVT on Saturday. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Hill saw O'Brien RVT), he rushed for 96 yards on only six carries, and also caught a touchdown.

Alex Lowery Makes It Two for Wilcox Tech/Kaynor RVT
