4A-1 Region II 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!
Graylyn Fry Dazzles in Panther Creek Victory
Starting off the list is Panther Creek's Graylyn Fry, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Fry threw for 371 yards and four touchdowns, and also rushed for 42 yards. His passing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 303 passing yards.
Panther Creek's victory was their seventh straight on the road dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 7-1. Fry and Panther Creek will get to enjoy the win for a while: their next game is against Aubrey at 7:30 p.m. on November 1st.

Dylan Brauchle Sets Career High in Rushing Yards
Sadly, Dylan Brauchle posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Lake Dallas over Panther Creek on Friday. Brauchle rushed for 197 yards and a touchdown, and also picked up 40 receiving yards, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
For the season, Brauchle has averaged 21.4 receiving yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 54.43 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 119.86 rushing yards.
Gamescore: 33.73
Skylar Lewis Delivers Best Effort of Season
Sulphur Springs was led to victory by Skylar Lewis, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Lewis picked up 130 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He showed off some serious burst, connecting on a big catch for 58 yards.
Lewis is probably looking forward to his next game, a road matchup against Community on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Lewis saw the Braves), he picked up 79 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
