Ryan Demcowicsz Earns League's Top Spot
Starting off the list is Watersprings's Ryan Demcowicsz, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Demcowicsz picked up 175 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground. He was no stranger to the big play, connecting on a big catch that went for 62 yards.
Watersprings is on a seven-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-6. Demcowicsz and Watersprings will stay at home for another week and welcome Mackay at 4:00 p.m. on Friday.

Sean Perry Turns in Another Game with at Least Six Total Tackles

North Gem had to settle for second on Friday, but Rusty Hatch sure wasn't going down easily. Hatch turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 66 yards.
Hatch and North Gem will be staying on the road on Friday to face off against Rockland at 4:00 p.m. The Cowboys had to take a loss when they last met the Bulldogs, but Hatch had little to do with the loss: he rushed for 135 yards, and also threw for 69 yards and a touchdown. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

Craig Yost Makes It Two for North Gem
Keeping Hatch company is Craig Yost, a fellow North Gem player. He rushed for 81 yards.
If history really does repeat itself, Yost might just drop another big game when he faces off against Rockland on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Yost saw the Bulldogs), he rushed for 108 yards and a touchdown on only 12 carries.
