3A Region 6 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!
Ohatchee Gets a Boost from Jones in 37-30 Win
Starting off the list is Ohatchee's Nate Jones, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Jones rushed for 82 yards and two touchdowns. He is becoming a predictor of Ohatchee's success: when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns the team is 2-1 (and 2-3 when he doesn't).
If history really does repeat itself, Jones might just drop another big game when he faces off against Glencoe on Friday. Jones rushed for 201 yards and three touchdowns the last time he and the Yellowjackets duked it out back in October of 2023.
