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!
Reed Jerome Dazzles in Lampasas Victory
Starting off the list is Lampasas's Reed Jerome, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Jerome rushed for 107 yards and three touchdowns on only 15 carries, and also threw for 136 yards and two touchdowns.
Burnet had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Jerome it was a similar story. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Jerome saw the Bulldogs), he rushed for 71 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 169 yards and two touchdowns.
