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!
Evan Morris Dazzles in Canon-Mcmillan Win
Starting off the list is Canon-McMillan's Evan Morris, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Morris rushed for 216 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 12.0 yards per carry. Those 216 rushing yards gave him a new career-high.
Morris will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant effort when he faces off against Central Catholic on Friday. Morris will face off against Bradley Gompers on Friday, the Vikings' star wideout. 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.
