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 Benfer Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Friday, Monroeville got the W thanks in part to Evan Benfer playing the best football he has all season. Benfer wasn't messing around, rushing for 152 yards and two touchdowns on only six carries, while also throwing for 51 yards and two touchdowns while completing 71.4% of his passes. The game was his third straight with two or more rushing touchdowns dating back to last season. His longest rush was for an impressive 51 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
The victory for Monroeville keeps them at an undefeated 9-0. Benfer and Monroeville will look to defend their home field on Friday against St. Paul at 7:00 p.m.
