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!
Colton Pearson Drops League-Best Effort on Friday
Starting off the list is Centerville's Colton Pearson, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Pearson's rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 102 rushing yards. He also put in work on the defensive side of the ball, picking up a sack and making four total tackles.
The win (which was Centerville's third in a row) raised their record to 5-1. Pearson and Centerville will have some time to savor their victory since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Groveton at 7:00 p.m. on October 25th.

Michael Sullivan Turns in Season-Best Performance
Corrigan-Camden was led to victory by Michael Sullivan, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Sullivan rushed for 87 yards and a touchdown on only five carries, and also threw for 127 yards and two touchdowns on only 12 passes. The bulk of those rushing yards came from one huge play: a run that gained an incredible 72 yards.
Corrigan-Camden's win was their third straight at home, which pushed their record up to 3-3. Sullivan will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant effort when he faces off against Hearne on Friday.
