Kaden Carter Has Career-Day on Friday
Starting off the list is Lamar County's Kaden Carter, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. On Friday Carter made two total tackles (1.0 for loss), good enough to also set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 81-yard run.
The win was the third in a row for Lamar County, bringing their record for this year to 6-1. Carter and Lamar County will square off against Putnam County at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.

Rashod Daniel Delivers Best Effort of Season

Daniel rushed for 170 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 7.1 yards per carry, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. Putnam County is 2-1 when Daniel posts 100 or more rushing yards, but 2-3 otherwise.
On the season, Daniel has run in 16 touchdowns while averaging 124.9 rushing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 58.29 rushing yards per game.

Hardge Posts Huge Game in 38-19 Victory
Jameccus Hardge was instrumental in extending Social Circle's winning streak to three on Friday. Nobody could stop Hardge as he rushed for 43 yards and two touchdowns.
If history really does repeat itself, Hardge might just drop another big game when he faces off against Jasper County on Friday. Hardge rushed for 85 yards and a touchdown on only ten carries, and also threw for 37 yards and a touchdown the last time he and the Hurricanes duked it out back in October of 2023.
