AAAAA Region 1 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!
Jay Stoker Put Up Big Numbers Against Wade Hampton (Again)
Jay Stoker helped snap Easley's five-game losing streak dating back to last season on Friday. Stoker was dialed in as he threw for 255 yards and three touchdowns while completing 77.8% of his passes, and also rushed for 69 yards and a touchdown. Considering he played a big game the last time he faced off against Wade Hampton on Friday, the result shouldn't come as too huge a shock.
Stoker and Easley will have some time to savor their victory since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on J.L. Mann at 7:30 p.m. on September 20th. The matchup will pit Stoker up against the Patriots' star quarterback Mcleod Darnell. So who wins this QB-duel? There's only one way to know for sure.

Hillcrest Wins Third-Straight Thanks to Weston Willis
Hillcrest picked up their third consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Weston Willis. Willis turned in nothing short of a gem: he picked up 192 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He torched the secondary when he pulled down a catch that went for 76 yards.
Hillcrest's victory bumped their record up to 3-0. Willis and Hillcrest will have some time to savor their win since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Mauldin at 7:30 p.m. on September 20th.
