Tidewater 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!
Griffin Came Up Big in Middlesex's 38-19 Win
Starting off the list is Middlesex's Jaquan Griffin, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Griffin rushed for 183 yards and five touchdowns while picking up 10.8 yards per carry. He showed off some serious burst, turning on the afterburners on one carry for 54 yards.
West Point had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Griffin it was a similar story. Griffin picked up 74 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 58 yards the last time he and the Pointers duked it out back in October of 2023.
