Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played from last Friday through Monday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Hebron Made His Presence Known in Topsail's 31-20 Victory
Starting off the list is Topsail's Eli Hebron, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Hebron rushed for 89 yards and a touchdown on only ten carries. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making seven total tackles and defending two passes in addition to snagging two interceptions.
Hebron and Topsail will challenge South Brunswick at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Hebron will face off against Jayden Daniels, the Cougars' star quarterback. With so much talent on the field, fans are surely in for an exciting game. The only thing left to see is who brings home the W.
