2A Catawba Valley 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!
Jason Willis Jr Delivers Electric Effort Vs East Burke
Starting off the list is Bunker Hill's Jason Willis Jr, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Willis Jr rushed for 168 yards and four touchdowns on only 15 carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 53 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
Willis Jr is probably looking forward to his next game, a home matchup against Maiden on Friday. When Willis Jr last faced the Blue Devils back in October of 2023, he rushed for 332 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 11.9 yards per carry.
Gamescore: 59.60
West Lincoln found a leader in Jaylin Winnex as the squad took down Newton-Conover on Friday. Winnex turned in nothing short of a gem, making three total tackles. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 71-yard run.
West Lincoln now has a winning record of 4-3. They and West Caldwell are set to duel on Friday.
Gamescore: 43.35
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Friday Raheim Misher stepped things up a notch to give Maiden the 'W'. Nobody could stop Misher as he picked up 83 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Maiden is on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five matchups, which provided a nice bump to their 5-2 record this season. Misher and Maiden will look to defend their home field on Friday against Bunker Hill at 7:30 p.m.
Gamescore: 38.13
Bost Came Up Big in Lincolnton's 63-6 Victory
Lincolnton picked up their third consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Treylen Bost. Bost did his part (and then some), rushing for 115 yards and two touchdowns on only nine carries for the 'W'. His longest rush was for an impressive 54 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
West Caldwell's probably not too fond of Bost given he always seems to get the better of them. Bost rushed for 86 yards and a touchdown on only seven carries the last time he and the Warriors duked it out back in October of 2023.
Gamescore: 37.40
Kendall Roberts Sets Career High in Rushing Yards
Kendall Roberts posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Friday. He rushed for 164 yards and a touchdown.
For the season, Roberts has run in 7 touchdowns while averaging 85.3 rushing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after seven games last season, he had two rushing touchdowns.
