AAAAAA Region 7 Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Wednesday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Brayden Tyson Delivers Best Performance of Season
Brookwood was led to victory by Brayden Tyson, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Wednesday. Tyson rushed for 362 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 19.1 yards per carry, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest rush was for an incredible 82 yards.
Parkview's probably not too fond of Tyson given he always seems to get the better of them. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Tyson saw the Panthers), he rushed for 149 yards and a touchdown while picking up 8.8 yards per carry, and also picked up 43 receiving yards.

Peachtree Ridge Gets a Boost from Kelly in 46-28 Win
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Wednesday Darnell Kelly stepped things up a notch to give Peachtree Ridge the 'W'. Kelly was dynamite, throwing for 237 yards and four touchdowns on only 19 passes, while also rushing for 48 yards and a touchdown.
Kelly must have Duluth's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. When Kelly last faced the Wildcats back in November of 2023, he rushed for 46 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 179 yards and a touchdown.

Jahmir Joseph Delivers Electric Performance Vs Peachtree Ridge
Duluth had to settle for second on Wednesday, but Jahmir Joseph sure wasn't going down easily. Despite the defeat, Joseph was still balling out as he rushed for 96 yards and a touchdown on only 11 carries, and also picked up 49 receiving yards.
Duluth's loss dropped their record down to 4-3. A feisty cat fight will be fought when Wildcats challenges Parkview at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 26.12
Bryce Green Turns in Season-Best Effort
On Wednesday, Peachtree Ridge got the W thanks in part to Bryce Green playing the best football he has all season. Green picked up 72 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 41 yards. He showed off some serious burst, cutting upfield on a catch for 60 yards.
This year, Green has caught 3 touchdowns while averaging 30.1 receiving yards per game.
