2A East Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played on Thursday and Friday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Big Game from Robinson As Englewood Fell 37-27
Starting off the list is Englewood's Deon Robinson, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Robinson rushed for 158 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 7.9 yards per carry. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his fourth straight game with at least 113 rushing yards dating back to last season.
Englewood moved to 4-2 with that defeat, which also ended their three-game winning streak. Robinson and Englewood will have a little extra prep time after the loss as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on Elizabeth at 7:00 p.m. on October 25th.

Logan Mael Makes It Two for Englewood
Keeping Robinson company is Logan Mael, a fellow Englewood player. He picked up 61 receiving yards and a touchdown.
For the year, Mael has caught those 1 touchdown while averaging 27.7 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 0.67 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 50.5 rushing yards.

Elizabeth found a leader in Joaquin Aviles as the squad took down Bennett on Friday. Nobody could stop Aviles as he threw for 109 yards and three touchdowns on only six passes, and also rushed for 72 yards. He got the majority of those rushing yards when he took off on a run that went for an incredible 60 yards.
Elizabeth's win was their fifth straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 5-2. Aviles and Elizabeth will have some time to savor their victory since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Englewood at 7:00 p.m. on October 25th.
