AAAA 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!
Price Posts Huge Game in 55-3 Victory
Starting off the list is Wren's Reese Price, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Price rushed for 114 yards and three touchdowns on only 13 carries. His rushing production has been exceptional as that marked his fifth straight game with at least 107 rushing yards.
Price might have his next game, a road matchup with Southside, circled on his calendar. Price rushed for 73 yards and two touchdowns the last time he and the Tigers duked it out back in October of 2023.
