AAAA Region 1 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!
Reese Price Turns in Season-Best Performance
On Friday, Wren got the W thanks in part to Reese Price playing the best football he has all season. Price rushed for 206 yards and a touchdown while picking up 7.6 yards per carry, and also caught a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. That high mark didn't come from nowhere: he has now rushed for 107 or more in the last four games he's played dating back to last season.
This year, Price has run in 9 touchdowns while averaging 137.6 rushing yards per game.

A Season-Best Effort from Colten Bagwell Leads Wren over Fountain Inn
Wren was led to victory by Colten Bagwell, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Bagwell threw for 166 yards and three touchdowns while completing 75% of his passes, and also rushed for 44 yards and a touchdown.
Unfortunately for Fountain Inn, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Bagwell. When Bagwell last faced the Fury back in September of 2023, he rushed for 44 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 93 yards and two touchdowns on perfect 6-for-6 passing.
