Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played on Thursday and Friday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Jason Todd Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Sadly, Jason Todd posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Mobile Christian over St. Michael Catholic on Thursday. Todd made 16 total tackles. He's now once again averaging 100+ rushing yards (105.1) per game.
Mobile Christian is on a four-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 2-5. Todd and Mobile Christian will stay at home for another week and welcome Orange Beach at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Noah Moss Turns in Season-Best Performance
St. Michael Catholic was led to victory by Noah Moss, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Thursday. Moss rushed for 225 yards and four touchdowns, and also picked up 70 receiving yards. The effort marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in September of 2023. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up a sack and making a tackle.
St. Michael Catholic's victory was their fourth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 6-1. Moss will have a chance to log another big game when he takes on Pensacola on Friday.

Another Game with at Least Two Rushing Touchdowns from Ezavier Crowell
Jackson was led to victory by Ezavier Crowell, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Thursday. Crowell wasn't messing around, rushing for 191 yards and three touchdowns on only eight carries. The match was his third straight with two or more rushing touchdowns dating back to last season. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 80-yard run.
Crowell must have Orange Beach's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. When Crowell last faced the Makos back in September of 2023, he rushed for 122 yards and a touchdown on only 11 carries.

Landon Duckworth Goes Supernova in Jackson Win
Landon Duckworth's big game helped extend Jackson's winning streak to seven on Thursday. Duckworth was dynamite, rushing for 87 yards and a touchdown, while also throwing for 189 yards and a touchdown while completing 72.7% of his passes. That's the most rushing yards he has posted since back in September of 2023.
Unfortunately for Orange Beach, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Duckworth. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Duckworth saw the Makos), he threw for 220 yards and four touchdowns on only 18 passes, and also rushed for 92 yards and a touchdown.

On the season, Rivers has thrown 17 touchdowns while averaging 265.3 passing yards per game.
