Section 2 D Top Player Performances of the Week
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!
A Season-Best Performance from Jack Welch Leads Warrensburg/Lake George/Bolton over Stillwater
On Friday, Warrensburg/Lake George/Bolton got the W thanks in part to Jack Welch playing the best football he has all season. Welch rushed for 335 yards and four touchdowns on only nine carries. He's now once again averaging 100+ rushing yards (137.4) per game. The dominant performance gave him a new career-high in rushing yards.
Welch is probably looking forward to his next game, a road matchup against Chatham on Friday. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Welch saw the Panthers), he picked up 207 receiving yards and four touchdowns.

Nick Jeckel Delivers Electric Effort Vs Stillwater
Another Warrensburg/Lake George/Bolton player making an appearance on this list is Nick Jeckel. He rushed for 108 yards and two touchdowns on only five carries. He didn't just play on offense: he also forced a fumble and made 12 total tackles (3.0 for loss).
Jeckel and Warrensburg/Lake George/Bolton will face off against Chatham at 7:00 p.m. on Saturday. The Wolverines got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Panthers, probably because Jeckel had a solid game then too: he rushed for 80 yards and a touchdown. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
