GIAA AAAA/AAA District 2 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!
Stanton Beverly Delivers Best Effort of Season
Frederica Academy was led to victory by Stanton Beverly, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Beverly rushed for 242 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 10.5 yards per carry, and also threw for 52 yards and a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
Beverly will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant performance when he faces off against St. Andrew's on Friday. The matchup will pit Beverly up against St. Andrew's star signal caller Patrick Jackson. 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.
