Washington Catholic - Metro 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!
Bishop O'connell's Losing Streak Is No More Thanks to Douglas O?Donnell
Bishop O'Connell's nine-game losing streak dating back to last season is now nothing but a memory thanks in part to Douglas O?Donnell. O?Donnell rushed for 121 yards and two touchdowns on only seven carries, good enough for us to rate the performance as the best he's had all season long. Those 121 rushing yards gave him a new career-high.
O?Donnell must have Saint John Paul the Great Catholic's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. O?Donnell rushed for 95 yards and a touchdown on only five carries the last time he and the Wolves duked it out back in October of 2023.
