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!
Linkin Carter Tops All Others This Week
Starting off the list is Eastside's Linkin Carter, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Carter rushed for 118 yards and three touchdowns on only 15 carries, and also threw for 80 yards and two touchdowns.
The win (which was Eastside's third in a row) raised their record to 4-4. Carter will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant effort when he faces off against Angola on Friday.

Noah Dove Turns in Season-Best Effort
On Friday, Eastside got the W thanks in part to Noah Dove playing the best football he has all season. Dove rushed for 153 yards and two touchdowns on only 11 carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest rush was for an impressive 59 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
For the year, Dove has run in 9 touchdowns while averaging 75 rushing yards per game.

Braden Hohenstein Puts an End to Prairie Heights' Losing Streak on Friday
Prairie Heights's three-game losing streak is now nothing but a memory thanks in part to Braden Hohenstein. Hohenstein did his part (and then some), rushing for 14 yards for the 'W'.
The win got Prairie Heights back to even at 4-4. Hohenstein and Prairie Heights will look to defend their home field on Friday against West Noble.
