Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances across Friday and Saturday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Austyn Modrzewski Delivers Electric Effort Vs Thunderridge
Austyn Modrzewski was instrumental in extending Mountain Vista's winning streak to seven on Friday. Modrzewski did his part (and then some), throwing for 367 yards and six touchdowns while completing 80% of his passes for the 'W'. He is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in the last nine games he's played dating back to last season.
ThunderRidge had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Modrzewski it was a similar story. When Modrzewski last faced the Grizzlies back in September of 2023, he threw for 451 yards and five touchdowns while completing 81.8% of his passes.
