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!
Julian Lewis Turns in Season-Best Performance
On Friday, Carrollton got the W thanks in part to Julian Lewis playing the best football he has all season. Lewis threw for 416 yards and six touchdowns while picking up 13.9 yards per attempt.
Lewis must have East Coweta's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. When Lewis last faced the Indians back in October of 2023, he threw for 455 yards and six touchdowns while picking up 15.7 yards per attempt.

A Season-Best Performance from Travis Smith Jr Leads Westlake over Chapel Hill
On Friday, Westlake got the W thanks in part to Travis Smith Jr playing the best football he has all season. Smith Jr picked up 191 receiving yards and four touchdowns. Westlake is 3-1 when Smith Jr posts 80 or more receiving yards, but 1-4 otherwise.

Tomir Bransford Turns in Season-Best Effort
On Friday, Westlake got the W thanks in part to Tomir Bransford playing the best football he has all season. Bransford rushed for 109 yards and a touchdown on only six carries. The performance marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in August.

Peyton Zachary and Co. Win Ninth in a Row
Peyton Zachary was instrumental in extending Carrollton's winning streak to nine on Friday. Zachary turned in his biggest game of the season, picking up 104 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
Zachary and Carrollton will have some time to savor their win since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Douglas County at 7:30 p.m. on November 1st. The matchup will pit Zachary up against the Tigers' star WR Aaron Gregory. 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.
