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!
A Season-Best Effort from Jason Wilkett Leads Wilburton over Spiro
Sadly, Jason Wilkett posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Wilburton over Spiro on Friday. Wilkett rushed for 315 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 10.2 yards per carry. He showed off some serious burst, cutting through the defense on one rush that went for 58 yards.
Wilburton is on a 16-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-6. Wilkett will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant performance when he faces off against Antlers on Thursday.

He showed off some serious burst, turning on the afterburners on one carry for 64 yards.
