Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances across Friday and Saturday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Evan Greer Drops League-Best Effort on Saturday
Starting off the list is Canyon del Oro's Evan Greer, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Greer rushed for 22 yards and a touchdown.
This season, Greer has averaged 5 total tackles per game and for the season has 8 sacks. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had one rushing touchdown. This year he is already up to four.

Kaleb Layton Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Friday, Walden Grove got the W thanks in part to Kaleb Layton playing the best football he has all season. Layton threw for 452 yards and six touchdowns while completing 84.6% of his passes.
The win was the fourth in a row for Walden Grove, bringing their record for this year to 4-2. Layton and Walden Grove will challenge Pueblo at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

A Season-Best Performance from Jayvon Coleman Leads Walden Grove over Sahuaro
Jayvon Coleman produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Walden Grove to the win on Friday. Coleman picked up 133 receiving yards and four touchdowns. He was no stranger to the big play, cutting upfield on a catch that went for 59 yards.
Coleman is probably looking forward to his next game, a home matchup against Pueblo on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Coleman saw the Warriors), he picked up 194 receiving yards and two touchdowns.

Trevor Eagerton Delivers Electric Effort Vs Walden Grove
While Trevor Eagerton delivered a dominant effort on Friday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Sahuaro. Eagerton turned in nothing short of a gem, throwing for 245 yards and four touchdowns on only 18 passes.
Sahuaro is on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 3-4. Eagerton and Sahuaro will have a little extra prep time after the loss as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on Mica Mountain at 7:00 p.m. on October 25th.
