Pocket - Small School Top Player Performances of the Week
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!
North Posey Gets a Boost from Galvin in 45-14 Win
Starting off the list is North Posey's Jed Galvin, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Galvin rushed for 199 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 12.4 yards per carry, and also picked up 56 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Galvin must have Pike Central's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Galvin rushed for 187 yards and three touchdowns on only five carries the last time he and the Chargers duked it out back in October of 2023.

Justin Leathers and Co. Win Fourth in a Row
Justin Leathers was instrumental in extending Southridge's winning streak to four on Friday. Nobody could stop Leathers as he rushed for 177 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 7.1 yards per carry. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 107 rushing yards dating back to last season.
Southridge pushed their record up to 7-2 with the victory, which was their fifth straight on the road. Leathers and Southridge will challenge Mt. Vernon at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.
