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!
Olurotimi Made His Presence Known in Maine East's 17-8 Defeat
Starting off the list is Maine East's Okiki Olurotimi, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Olurotimi picked up a sack, made 13 total tackles (3.0 for loss), and defended a pass. He is on a roll when it comes to total tackles, as he's now made seven or more in the last eight games he's played dating back to last season.
Maine East has traveled a rocky road recently having lost five of their last six contests, which put a noticeable dent in their 3-5 record this season. Olurotimi and Maine East will be playing at home against Niles West at 6:00 p.m. on Friday.
