Great Lakes Christian Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played from last Thursday through Saturday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Columbus Crusaders Gets a Boost from Bowie in 58-6 Win
Starting off the list is Columbus Crusaders's Ezekiel Bowie, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Bowie rushed for 174 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 8.7 yards per carry. He is on a roll when it comes to rushing touchdowns, as he's now punched in two or more in the last eight games he's played dating back to last season.
If the past is any indication, Bowie could be in store for another big game when he takes on Noblesville L on Saturday. When Bowie last faced Noblesville L back in September, he rushed for 258 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 11.7 yards per carry.
Gamescore: 52.88
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Saturday Brogan Wilson stepped things up a notch to give Noblesville L the 'W'. Wilson turned in nothing short of a gem, picking up 79 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Noblesville L's win ended a ten-game drought on the road dating back to last season and puts them at 3-5. Wilson and Noblesville L will face off against Columbus Crusaders at 6:00 p.m. on Saturday.
