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!
Luke Carney's Big Game Leads Dallas Christian over Shelton
Starting off the list is Dallas Christian's Luke Carney, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Carney rushed for 100 yards and three touchdowns on only six carries, and also threw for 180 yards and a touchdown while completing 81.8% of his passes. That's the most rushing yards he has posted since back in September of 2023.
Carney might have his next game, a road matchup with Covenant, circled on his calendar. Back in November of 2023 (the last time Carney saw the Knights), he threw for 207 yards and three touchdowns while completing 82.4% of his passes, and also rushed for 95 yards and a touchdown on only six carries.
