4A District 7 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!
Big Game from Levidiotis As Lake Wales Fell 31-19
Starting off the list is Lake Wales's Brycen Levidiotis, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Levidiotis threw for 207 yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 59 yards and a touchdown.
For the year, Levidiotis has thrown 10 touchdowns (and and only 2 picks) while averaging 149.9 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had one rushing touchdown. This year he is already up to five.

Another Game with at Least Six Total Tackles from Jeremiah Telot
Sadly, Jeremiah Telot posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Lake Wales over Jones on Friday.

This year, Telot has averaged 8.2 total tackles per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after six games last season, he was only averaging 0.67 total tackles per game.

Lake Region had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Dias it was a similar story. Dias forced two fumbles and made 11 total tackles (2.0 for loss) the last time he and the Thunder duked it out back in September of 2023.
