C1 District 2 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!
Cael Smith Turns in Season-Best Performance
On Friday, Ashland-Greenwood got the W thanks in part to Cael Smith playing the best football he has all season. Smith rushed for 157 yards and three touchdowns, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
Ashland-Greenwood's win was their ninth straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 6-1. Smith will have a chance to log another big game when he takes on Brownell Talbot on Friday.

A Season-Best Performance from Jackson Post Leads Roncalli Catholic over Ashland-Greenwood
Sadly, Jackson Post posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Roncalli Catholic over Ashland-Greenwood on Friday. Post picked up 134 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He torched the secondary when he pulled down a catch that went for 83 yards.
Post will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant performance when he faces off against Boys Town on Friday. The contest will pit Post up against the Cowboys' star WR Nyree Poteet. With so much talent on the field, fans are surely in for an exciting game. The only thing left to see is who brings home the W.

Boys Town found a leader in Mekhai Williams as the team took down Louisville on Friday. Williams did his part (and then some), rushing for 131 yards and two touchdowns on only 15 carries for the 'W'.
Boys Town's win was their fifth straight on the road dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 6-1. Williams and Boys Town will face off against Roncalli Catholic at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Nyree Poteet Goes Supernova in Boys Town Victory
Another Boys Town player making an appearance on this list is Nyree Poteet. He rushed for 89 yards and a touchdown on only six carries, and also threw for 136 yards on six of 13 attempts.
Poteet might have his next game, a home matchup with Roncalli Catholic, circled on his calendar. When Poteet last faced the Crimson Pride back in September of 2023, he picked up 162 receiving yards and two touchdowns.

Lucas Post Delivers Best Effort of Season
On Friday, Roncalli Catholic had to settle for second even though Lucas Post put up the best numbers he has all season. Post picked up 83 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 37 yards.
Post and Roncalli Catholic will face off against Boys Town at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The match will pit Post up against the Cowboys' star WR Nyree Poteet. The only thing left to do is find out who's the greater deep ball threat. You'll have to watch the game to know for sure.
