Washington Catholic - Metro 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!
Douglas O?Donnell Puts an End to Bishop O'connell's Losing Streak on Friday
Douglas O?Donnell helped snap Bishop O'Connell's nine-game losing streak dating back to last season. O?Donnell rushed for 121 yards and two touchdowns on only seven carries, good enough for us to rate the performance as the best he's had all season long. Those 121 rushing yards gave him a new career-high.
Unfortunately for Saint John Paul the Great Catholic, this isn't the first big game they've seen from O?Donnell. O?Donnell rushed for 95 yards and a touchdown on only five carries the last time he and the Wolves duked it out back in October of 2023.

Big Game from Williams As Bishop O'connell Won 35-7
Joseph Williams helped snap Bishop O'Connell's nine-game losing streak dating back to last season. Williams turned in nothing short of a gem on Friday, picking up 102 receiving yards and two touchdowns. The bulk of those receiving yards came from one huge play: a catch that gained an incredible 70 yards.
On the season, Williams has caught 4 touchdowns while averaging 62.2 receiving yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after six games last season, he was only averaging 1.5 receiving yards per game.

Another Game with at Least Seven Total Tackles from Cole Stup
Paul VI came up short on Friday despite Cole Stup delivering his best game to date. Stup wasn't messing around, making 18 total tackles (2.0 for loss). The matchup was his ninth straight with seven or more total tackles dating back to last season.
Paul VI moved to 4-2 with that loss, which also ended their three-game winning streak. A feisty cat fight will be fought when Panthers challenges Archbishop Carroll at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday.
