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!
Tabor Offord Delivers Best Effort of Season
Saint James was led to victory by Tabor Offord, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Offord picked up 177 receiving yards and three touchdowns. He has become a key player for Saint James: the team is undefeated when he posts at least two receiving touchdowns, but 1-3 otherwise.
Saint James' win was their fourth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 5-3. Offord will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant effort when he faces off against Tallassee on Friday.

Marquez Daniel Turns in Season-Best Performance
Booker T. Washington was led to victory by Marquez Daniel, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Daniel picked up 152 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He showed off some serious burst, connecting on a big catch for 67 yards.
For the year, Daniel has caught 8 touchdowns while averaging 79.1 receiving yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 44.43 receiving yards per game.

Another Game with at Least Six Total Tackles from Jai Uhuru
Jai Uhuru produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Booker T. Washington to the win on Friday. Uhuru wasn't messing around, picking up two sacks, forcing a fumble, and making eight total tackles (3.0 for loss). The contest was his fourth straight with six or more total tackles dating back to last season.
This year, Uhuru has averaged 5.7 total tackles per game and for the season has 3 sacks. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had one forced fumble. This year he is already up to two.

A Season-Best Effort from Chase Perry Leads Saint James over Cleburne County
On Friday, Saint James got the W thanks in part to Chase Perry playing the best football he has all season. Perry threw for 246 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 12.3 yards per attempt, and also punched in two rushing scores. He is becoming a predictor of Saint James' success: when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns the team is undefeated (and 1-3 when he doesn't).
This year, Perry has thrown 11 touchdowns while averaging 120.2 passing yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after eight games last season, he was only averaging 25.53 passer rating per game. This year he is averaging 74.08 passer rating.
