7A Central 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!
Cobb Came Up Big in Pulaski Academy's 48-29 Loss
Starting off the list is Pulaski Academy's Brandon Cobb, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Cobb threw for 338 yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 111 yards and a touchdown. He is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in the last six games he's played dating back to last season.
With the defeat, Pulaski Academy broke their five-game winning streak and moved their record to 5-1. Cobb will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant performance when he faces off against Cabot on Friday.

Bryant picked up their sixth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Jordan Walker. Walker turned in nothing short of a gem, throwing for 181 yards and three touchdowns.
Bryant pushed their record up to 6-0 with the victory, which was their seventh straight at home dating back to last season. Walker and Bryant will take on Little Rock Southwest at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Myron Thrash Jr Turns in Season-Best Effort
Bryant was led to victory by Myron Thrash Jr, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Thrash Jr rushed for 109 yards and a touchdown on only 14 carries.
Thrash Jr is probably looking forward to his next game, a home matchup against Little Rock Southwest on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Thrash Jr saw the Gryphons), he rushed for 226 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 9.8 yards per carry, and also picked up 76 receiving yards and a touchdown.
