1A D6 Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played on Wednesday and Thursday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Miller Posts Huge Game in 18-0 Win
Starting off the list is Anclote's Alexis Miller, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Miller rushed for 41 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 147 yards and one touchdown. She also deserves a shoutout for her performance on D, making three total tackles and defending two passes in addition to snagging three interceptions.
Anclote's win ended a four-game drought on the road and puts them at 3-6. Miller and Anclote will have some time to savor their victory since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Land O' Lakes at 7:00 p.m. on March 25th.

On the year, Candelario has averaged 1.7 total tackles per game and for the season has 10 sacks.
