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!
Zachary Katz Goes Supernova in True North Classical Academy Win
Starting off the list is True North Classical Academy's Zachary Katz, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Katz threw for 356 yards and four touchdowns, and also rushed for 107 yards and a touchdown on only seven carries. Those 107 rushing yards gave him a new career-high.
For the season, Katz has thrown 10 touchdowns while averaging 261.7 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 21 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 59.67 rushing yards.
