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!
William Harmon Tops All Others This Week
Starting off the list is Sussex Central's William Harmon, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Harmon made ten total tackles and defended a pass. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making ten total tackles and defending a pass.
Sussex Central's victory was their fifth straight on the road dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 5-1. Harmon's next match is against St. Georges Tech on Saturday, where he'll look to repeat that solid effort.

Kahmaj Kearney Delivers Best Effort of Season
Kahmaj Kearney produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Smyrna to the win on Friday. Kearney rushed for 185 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 7.1 yards per carry, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
Caesar Rodney's probably not too fond of Kearney given he always seems to get the better of them. When Kearney last faced the Riders back in October of 2023, he rushed for 31 yards and three touchdowns, and also picked up 66 receiving yards.
