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!
Grady Adamson Dazzles in Deer Creek Win
Starting off the list is Deer Creek's Grady Adamson, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Adamson threw for 236 yards and three touchdowns while completing 80% of his passes, and also rushed for 75 yards and a touchdown.
Adamson must have Edmond North's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. When Adamson last faced the Huskies back in August of 2023, he threw for 237 yards and three touchdowns on only 16 passes.
