4A Region 7 Top Player Performances of the Week
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 Garrett Burrough Leads Brooks over Danville
On Friday, Brooks got the W thanks in part to Garrett Burrough playing the best football he has all season. Burrough rushed for 77 yards and two touchdowns on only six carries, and also threw for 279 yards and two touchdowns.
A feisty cat fight will be fought when Lions takes on Deshler at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Lions had to take a loss when they last met the Tigers, but Burrough had little to do with the loss: he rushed for 48 yards and a touchdown, and also threw for 121 yards and a touchdown. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
