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!
Jordan Stapleton Goes Supernova in West Harrison Loss
Starting off the list is West Harrison's Jordan Stapleton, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Stapleton rushed for 209 yards and a touchdown while picking up 11.0 yards per carry, and also picked up 40 receiving yards. That's the most rushing yards he has posted since back in August of 2023.
West Harrison moved to 4-2 with that loss, which also ended their four-game winning streak. Stapleton and West Harrison will take on Picayune at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Knight Posts Huge Game in 48-13 Win
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Friday Deuce Knight stepped things up a notch to give George County the 'W'. Nobody could stop Knight as he threw for 219 yards and four touchdowns while completing 76.9% of his passes, and also punched in a rushing score.
If history really does repeat itself, Knight might just drop another big game when he faces off against West Harrison on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Knight saw the Hurricanes), he threw for 323 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 13.5 yards per attempt, and also rushed for 48 yards and two touchdowns.
Gamescore: 34.40
Montrell Dortch Makes It Two for George County
Keeping Knight company is Montrell Dortch, a fellow George County player. He picked up 53 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground.
If the past is any indication, Dortch could be in store for another big game when he takes on West Harrison on Friday. When Dortch last faced the Hurricanes back in October of 2023, he picked up 231 receiving yards and two touchdowns.

Another Game with at Least Five Total Tackles from Jazear Carter

For the year, Carter has averaged 8.7 total tackles per game.
