Section 1 AA - League B Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Thursday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Ziion Osborne Earns League's Top Spot
Starting off the list is Ramapo's Ziion Osborne, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Osborne rushed for 131 yards and three touchdowns. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up a sack and making eight total tackles.
Ramapo's victory ended a six-game drought at home dating back to last season and bumped them up to 2-3. Osborne and Ramapo will head out on the road to square off against Yonkers Force [Gorton/Roosevelt/Yonkers Montessori Academy/Yonkers] at 1:30 p.m. on Saturday.
Gamescore: 38.20
Davonte Brown Makes It Two for Ramapo
Keeping Osborne company is Davonte Brown, a fellow Ramapo player. He rushed for 102 yards and a touchdown on only eight carries, and also picked up 49 receiving yards and a touchdown. His longest rush was for an impressive 55 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
This year, Brown has caught 2 touchdowns while averaging 24.6 receiving yards per game.
Gamescore: 34.27
Middlebrook Posts Huge Game in 6-0 Loss
While Mount Vernon might've come up empty on Thursday, Jerrell Middlebrook wasn't going down without a fight. Middlebrook turned in nothing short of a gem, making 17 total tackles (2.0 for loss).
With the loss, Mount Vernon broke their three-game winning streak and moved their record to 3-3. Middlebrook and Mount Vernon will have a little extra prep time after the defeat as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on Ketcham at 7:00 p.m. on October 25th.
Gamescore: 28.75
Edward Ababio Turns in Another Game with at Least Five Total Tackles
Another Mount Vernon player making an appearance on this list is Edward Ababio. He made ten total tackles (7.0 for loss). Ababio is crushing it when it comes to total tackles: he's made at least five every time he's taken the field this season.
This year, Ababio has averaged 8.2 total tackles per game.
Gamescore: 28.25
A Constellation of Stars for Mount Vernon
Another Mount Vernon player making an appearance on this list is Dwight Findlay. He picked up 63 receiving yards.
Findlay and Mount Vernon will get a bit of extra time to process the defeat as their next game is a ways off. They'll take on Ketcham at 7:00 p.m. on October 25th. The Knights got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Indians, probably because Findlay had a solid game then too: he rushed for 57 yards and a touchdown, and also threw for 98 yards and a touchdown. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
