SCISA 8-Man Region I (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 Colt Bailey Leads Wardlaw Academy over Oakbrook Prep
Colt Bailey produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Wardlaw Academy to the win on Friday. Bailey's rushing production has been exceptional as that marked his eighth straight game with at least 198 rushing yards. He was no stranger to the big play, taking off on a dash that went for 53 yards.
Oakbrook Prep's probably not too fond of Bailey given he always seems to get the better of them. Bailey rushed for 237 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 14.8 yards per carry, and also threw for 125 yards and three touchdowns on only 11 passes the last time he and the Knights duked it out back in September.
Gamescore: 91.60
Garrett Murphy Dazzles in Laurens Academy Defeat
Garrett Murphy continued his hot streak on Friday by dropping his seventh-straight game with at least 106 rushing yards. He rushed for 106 yards on only ten carries, and also picked up 64 receiving yards.
If the past is any indication, Murphy could be in store for another big game when he takes on King Academy on Friday. When Murphy last faced the Knights back in September, he rushed for 258 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 10.8 yards per carry.
Gamescore: 30.18
Michael Martin Makes It Two for Wardlaw Academy
The second Wardlaw Academy player making an appearance here is Michael Martin, and for good reason. He forced a fumble and made three total tackles (1.0 for loss). He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, forcing a fumble and making three total tackles (1.0 for loss).
Gamescore: 22.65
Garrison Vaughan Turns in Another Game with at Least Six Total Tackles
The second Laurens Academy player making an appearance here is Garrison Vaughan, and for good reason. He wasn't messing around on Friday, picking up 0.5 sacks, forcing a fumble, and making eight total tackles (2.5 for loss). The match was his eighth straight with six or more total tackles.
This season, Vaughan has averaged 7.8 total tackles per game and for the season has 4.5 sacks. He is looking even better than he did last year: after nine games last season, he was only averaging four total tackles per game.
Gamescore: 20.75
A Constellation of Stars for Laurens Academy
Another Laurens Academy player making an appearance on this list is Caleb Hardy. He picked up 93 receiving yards.
If history really does repeat itself, Hardy might just drop another big game when he faces off against King Academy on Friday. Hardy rushed for 133 yards and two touchdowns on only ten carries, and also picked up 60 receiving yards and a touchdown the last time he and the Knights duked it out back in September.
