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!
Yolo Salas Has Career Rushing Day
Starting off the list is Liberty Bell's Yolo Salas, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. On Friday Salas rushed for 191 yards and two touchdowns on only 15 carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
The win (which was Liberty Bell's fourth in a row) raised their record to 5-1. Salas and Liberty Bell will square off against Brewster at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Teague Came Up Big in Manson's 28-0 Win
Manson found a leader in Jaxon Teague as the team took down Tonasket on Friday. Nobody could stop Teague as he rushed for 130 yards and a touchdown while picking up 7.2 yards per carry.
Teague and Manson will look to defend their home field on Friday against Okanogan at 7:00 p.m. The game will pit Teague up against the Bulldogs' star RB David Huffstetler. Will the contest be decided in the trenches? We'll have our answer very soon.

Okanogan Wins 20th-Straight Thanks to Carter Kuchenbuch
Okanogan picked up their 20th consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Carter Kuchenbuch. Kuchenbuch turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 55 yards and a touchdown, while also throwing for 46 yards and two touchdowns. He was no stranger to the big play, taking off on a dash that went for 55 yards.
Kuchenbuch is probably looking forward to his next game, a road matchup against Manson on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Kuchenbuch saw the Trojans), he rushed for 97 yards and three touchdowns on only seven carries.
