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!
Cole Allen Delivers Best Effort of Season
On Friday, St. John got the W thanks in part to Cole Allen playing the best football he has all season. Allen rushed for 439 yards and seven touchdowns while picking up 15.7 yards per carry, and also caught a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest rush was for an incredible 82 yards.
Allen is probably looking forward to his next game, a road matchup against Kinkaid on Friday. When Allen last faced the Falcons back in October of 2023, he rushed for 118 yards and two touchdowns.
