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!
Big Game from Ullom As Monroe Central Won 45-0
Starting off the list is Monroe Central's Jerimiah Ullom, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Ullom rushed for 129 yards and a touchdown. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up three sacks and making six total tackles.
Irvington Preparatory Academy's probably not too fond of Ullom given he always seems to get the better of them. Ullom picked up 55 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 37 yards and a touchdown the last time he and the duked it out back in October of 2023.

Kube Posts Huge Game in 41-7 Win
Mark Kube put up the most rushing yards he's had since back in August on Friday. He rushed for 121 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 7.6 yards per carry.
If history really does repeat itself, Kube might just drop another big game when he faces off against Lapel on Friday. Kube rushed for 228 yards and five touchdowns the last time he and the Bulldogs duked it out back in October of 2023.

North Decatur Wins Sixth-Straight Thanks to Corbin Thackery
Corbin Thackery was instrumental in extending North Decatur's winning streak to six on Friday. Thackery did his part (and then some), rushing for 104 yards and two touchdowns on only six carries for the 'W'. He is trending in the right direction considering he's improved his point production for three straight games.
Edinburgh's probably not too fond of Thackery given he always seems to get the better of them. Thackery rushed for 81 yards and three touchdowns on only six carries the last time he and the Lancers duked it out back in October of 2023.
