6A Region 7 Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played on Thursday and Friday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Trey Greenwell Tops All Others This Week
Starting off the list is Decatur's Trey Greenwell, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Greenwell made nine total tackles and defended a pass. He torched the secondary when he pulled down a catch that went for 75 yards.
For the season, Greenwell has averaged 6.1 total tackles per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had one receiving touchdown. This year he is already up to two.

Gross Made His Presence Known in Athens' 21-19 Defeat
While Brogan Gross delivered a dominant effort on Friday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Athens. Nobody could stop Gross as he threw for 201 yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 44 yards.
It'll be Battle of the Birds when Golden Eagles takes on Columbia at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. The last time Gross took on the Eagles, he threw for 154 yards and two touchdowns on perfect 10-for-10 passing. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
