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!
A Season-Best Effort from Markel Keyes Leads Salmen over Northshore
On Friday, Salmen got the W thanks in part to Markel Keyes playing the best football he has all season. Keyes rushed for 100 yards and a touchdown, and also threw for 177 yards and two touchdowns while completing 84.2% of his passes, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
On the year, Keyes has thrown 7 touchdowns while averaging 124.2 passing yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after six games last season, he was only averaging 1.67 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 33.17 rushing yards.
