5A District 11 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!
Riverdale Gets a Boost from Hayes in 34-14 Win
Starting off the list is Riverdale's Cole Hayes, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Hayes rushed for 253 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 9.0 yards per carry. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 75-yard run.
Hayes must have North Fort Myers's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. When Hayes last faced the Red Knights back in October, he rushed for 285 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 8.9 yards per carry.

A Season-Best Effort from Frederick Jackson Leads Fort Myers over Charlotte
Fort Myers was led to victory by Frederick Jackson, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Jackson picked up 109 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He was no stranger to the big play, connecting on a big catch that went for 62 yards.
Jackson and Fort Myers will welcome Riverdale at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. The Green Wave got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Raiders, probably because Jackson had a solid game then too: he rushed for 106 yards and a touchdown on only six carries. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

John Holcy Delivers Best Effort of Season
John Holcy produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Fort Myers to the win on Friday. Holcy rushed for 87 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 70-yard run.
Holcy and Fort Myers will challenge Riverdale at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. The match will pit Holcy up against the Raiders' star rusher Cole Hayes. Will the matchup be decided in the trenches? We'll have our answer very soon.
