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!
Lane Conway's Big Game Leads Silver Lake over Dorchester
Starting off the list is Silver Lake's Lane Conway, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Conway rushed for 106 yards and two touchdowns. That's the most rushing yards he has posted since back in September of 2023.
This season, Conway has averaged 54.8 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had three rushing touchdowns. This year he is already up to five.

Red Cloud Wins Fifth-Straight Thanks to Gage Ely
Red Cloud picked up their fifth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Gage Ely. Ely wasn't messing around, rushing for 82 yards and two touchdowns on only six carries, while also throwing for 18 yards and a touchdown. The game was his fifth straight with two or more rushing touchdowns dating back to last season.
This season, Ely has run in 13 touchdowns while averaging 142 rushing yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 45.8 rushing yards per game.

Tenbensel Posts Huge Game in 49-0 Win
The second Silver Lake player making an appearance here is Jaxon Tenbensel, and for good reason. He rushed for 86 yards and a touchdown on only five carries. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, defending two passes and snagged an interception which he returned for a touchdown.
This year, Tenbensel has run in 3 touchdowns while averaging 48.8 rushing yards per game.
Gamescore: 33.20
Red Cloud picked up their fifth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Hunter Englehart. Englehart was unstoppable, rushing for 63 yards and a touchdown on only six carries, while also catching a touchdown.
Harvard's probably not too fond of Englehart given he always seems to get the better of them. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Englehart saw the Cardinals), he rushed for 58 yards and two touchdowns, and also caught a touchdown.
