Alabama Christian (8 Man) Top Player Performances of the Week
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!
Jagger Scott Earns League's Top Spot
Starting off the list is Southern Christian's Jagger Scott, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Scott rushed for 56 yards on only seven carries.
Scott and Southern Christian will get a bit of extra time to process the defeat as their next game is a ways off. They'll take on Lighthouse HomeSchool at 7:00 p.m. on October 25th. The Patriots had to take a loss when they last met the Warriors, but Scott had little to do with the loss: he picked up 135 receiving yards and a touchdown. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
Gamescore: 47.85
Swords Posts Huge Game in 41-7 Win
Kemp Swords put up the most rushing yards he's had since back in November of 2023 on Friday. He rushed for 97 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 102 yards on seven of 15 attempts. He is becoming a predictor of Evangel Christian's success: when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns the team is undefeated (and 1-2 when he doesn't).
Southern Christian had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Swords it was a similar story. Swords rushed for 90 yards and a touchdown, and also threw for 69 yards and two touchdowns the last time he and the Patriots duked it out back in October of 2023.
Gamescore: 36.20
Eli Black Dazzles in Evangel Christian Win

This season, Black has run in 5 touchdowns while averaging 31.4 rushing yards per game.

Nick Cloud Makes It Three for Evangel Christian
Another Evangel Christian player making an appearance on this list is Nick Cloud. He rushed for 84 yards and two touchdowns on only ten carries.
This year, Cloud has run in 9 touchdowns while averaging 60.3 rushing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after nine games last season, he was only averaging 1.67 rushing yards per game.
Gamescore: 29.30
Jedd Scott Makes It Two for Southern Christian
