Rayshon Coleman's Rushing Yards a New Career-High
Starting off the list is Florala's Rayshon Coleman, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. On Friday Coleman rushed for 221 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 8.5 yards per carry, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He also put in work on the defensive side of the ball, making 25 total tackles and defending two passes in addition to snagging an interception.
The win was the third in a row for Florala, bringing their record for this year to 6-2. A feisty cat fight will be fought when Wildcats takes on Red Level on Friday.
