Super - United White Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances across Friday and Saturday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Hill Came Up Big in Pope John XXIII's 35-34 Loss
Starting off the list is Pope John XXIII's Tylik Hill, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Hill rushed for 243 yards and three touchdowns. He was no stranger to the big play, taking off on a dash that went for 55 yards.
If the past is any indication, Hill could be in store for another big game when he takes on Seton Hall Prep on Saturday. Hill rushed for 221 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 10.5 yards per carry the last time he and Seton Hall Prep duked it out back in September of 2023.

Depaul Catholic Wins Sixth-Straight Thanks to Derek Zammit
Derek Zammit was instrumental in extending DePaul Catholic's winning streak to six on Friday. Don Bosco Prep had no answer to Zammit as he threw for 216 yards and two touchdowns while completing 73.7% of his passes, and also rushed for 46 yards.
Zammit and DePaul Catholic will have some time to savor their victory since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on St. Peter's Prep at 6:30 p.m. on October 17th. The Spartans got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Marauders, probably because Zammit had a solid game then too: he threw for 240 yards while completing 84.6% of his passes, and also rushed for 43 yards. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

A Season-Best Effort from Matthew Tafuri Leads Delbarton over Pope John XXIII
On Saturday, Delbarton got the W thanks in part to Matthew Tafuri playing the best football he has all season. Tafuri picked up 154 receiving yards and two touchdowns. The performance also marked the most rushing yards (16) he has had since back in October of 2023. His longest reception was for an incredible 80 yards.
Tafuri and Delbarton will get to enjoy the win for a while: their next game is against Bergen Catholic at 1:00 p.m. on October 19th. Tafuri will face off against Najee Calhoun, the Crusaders' star running back. With so much talent on the field, fans are surely in for an exciting game. The only thing left to see is who brings home the W.

Seton Hall Prep is on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 2-4. Robbins and Seton Hall Prep will take on Pope John XXIII at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday.

Burress Posts Huge Game in 21-20 Win
DePaul Catholic picked up their sixth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Elijah Burress. Burress was unstoppable, picking up 132 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
If the past is any indication, Burress could be in store for another big game when he takes on St. Peter's Prep on Saturday. When Burress last faced the Marauders back in September of 2023, he picked up 96 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
