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!
John Kirkpatrick Dazzles in Randleman Victory
John Kirkpatrick's big game helped extend Randleman's winning streak to seven on Friday. Nobody could stop Kirkpatrick as he threw for 135 yards and four touchdowns while completing 80% of his passes. He is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for four or more in the last three games he's played dating back to last season.
Unfortunately for Providence Grove, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Kirkpatrick. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Kirkpatrick saw the Patriots), he threw for 218 yards and six touchdowns, and also rushed for 30 yards.
