A-8 Plains (8 Man) 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!
A Season-Best Performance from Anderson Filla Leads Akron over Dayspring Christian Academy
On Friday, Akron got the W thanks in part to Anderson Filla playing the best football he has all season. Filla rushed for 201 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 15 yards and a touchdown.
Unfortunately for Dayspring Christian Academy, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Filla. Back in September (the last time Filla saw the Eagles), he rushed for 196 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 7.5 yards per carry.
Gamescore: 61.83
Martin Posts Huge Game in 32-14 Defeat
While Dayspring Christian Academy might've come up empty on Friday, Elijah Martin wasn't going down without a fight. Akron had no answer to Martin as he rushed for 112 yards and two touchdowns on only 14 carries. Martin's longest rush was for an impressive 63 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
Akron had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Martin it was a similar story. Back in September (the last time Martin saw the Rams), he rushed for 147 yards and a touchdown.
Gamescore: 48.80
Owen Harris put up the most rushing yards he's had since back in October of 2023 on Friday. He rushed for 99 yards on only 13 carries.
If history really does repeat itself, Harris might just drop another big game when he faces off against Akron on Friday. Harris rushed for 118 yards and a touchdown on only eight carries the last time he and the Rams duked it out back in October of 2023.
Gamescore: 36.85
Jace Curtis Goes Supernova in Akron Victory
The second Akron player making an appearance here is Jace Curtis, and for good reason. He rushed for 111 yards and a touchdown on only ten carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 61 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
Unfortunately for Dayspring Christian Academy, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Curtis. When Curtis last faced the Eagles back in September, he rushed for 113 yards while picking up 7.1 yards per carry, and also caught a touchdown.
