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!
Jaron Thomas Goes Supernova in Concord Win
Concord picked up their eighth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Jaron Thomas. Wawasee had no answer to Thomas as he rushed for 116 yards and three touchdowns on only ten carries. Thomas didn't just play on offense: he also picked up 0.5 sacks and made eight total tackles.
Thomas might have his next game, a home matchup with Plymouth, circled on his calendar. When Thomas last faced the Pilgrims/Rockies back in October of 2023, he rushed for 186 yards and four touchdowns on only 14 carries.
Gamescore: 47.45
While NorthWood might've come up empty on Friday, Austin King wasn't going down without a fight. Nobody could stop King as he forced a fumble and made seven total tackles. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, forcing a fumble and making seven total tackles.
NorthWood is on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 3-5. King and NorthWood will take on Goshen at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Underclassman Landon Snyder Comes Up Big Against Plymouth
While Friday's win was certainly a team effort, someone pulling more than their own weight was underclassman Landon Snyder. He turned in nothing short of a gem on Friday, rushing for 124 yards and three touchdowns on only 12 carries. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 76-yard run.
Mishawaka pushed their record up to 6-2 with the victory, which was their fourth straight at home. Snyder and Mishawaka will face off against Wawasee at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
