2A Olympic 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!
Jack Grant Dazzles in Bainbridge Victory
Starting off the list is Bainbridge's Jack Grant, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Grant threw for 276 yards and four touchdowns while completing 73.3% of his passes, and also rushed for 50 yards and a touchdown.
Unfortunately for North Mason, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Grant. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Grant saw the Bulldogs), he rushed for 69 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 199 yards and three touchdowns.
Gamescore: 49.80
While Olympic might've come up empty on Friday, Riley Mccoy wasn't going down without a fight. King had no answer to Mccoy as he picked up a sack and made three total tackles. Mccoy didn't just play on offense: he also picked up a sack and made three total tackles.
This is the second loss in a row for Olympic and nudges their season record down to 3-2. They and Bremerton are set to duel on Friday.

A Season-Best Performance from Antonio Castorena Leads Olympic over King's
On Friday, Olympic had to settle for second even though Antonio Castorena put up the best numbers he has all season. Castorena threw for 146 yards and three touchdowns.
On the season, Castorena has thrown 4 touchdowns while averaging 80.2 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 5.6 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 18 rushing yards.
Gamescore: 23.73
Isaiah Beyer's Rushing Yards a New Career-High
Bainbridge was led to victory by Isaiah Beyer, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Beyer picked up 99 receiving yards and two touchdowns, good enough to also set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
This season, Beyer has caught those 2 touchdowns while averaging 80 receiving yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 38.6 receiving yards per game.
Gamescore: 23.03
Gavin Wells Makes It Three for Olympic
Another Olympic player making an appearance on this list is Gavin Wells. He made nine total tackles.
Olympic and Bremerton are set to duel on Friday. The Trojans had to take a loss when they last met the Knights, but Wells had little to do with the loss: he made eight total tackles and snagged an interception which he returned for a touchdown. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
