Willis Jr Came Up Big in Pembroke Pines Charter's 22-21 Victory
Starting off the list is Pembroke Pines Charter's Keidran Willis Jr, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Willis Jr rushed for 126 yards and two touchdowns on only 13 carries. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, forcing a fumble and making nine total tackles.
On the year, Willis Jr has averaged 28.3 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 20.14 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 108.57 rushing yards.
