AA Region 4 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!
Jonathan Clarkson Dazzles in North Central Victory
Starting off the list is North Central's Jonathan Clarkson, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Clarkson rushed for 252 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 7.9 yards per carry. He has become a key player for North Central: the team is 2-1 when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns, but 1-2 otherwise.
The win snapped North Central's winning streak at three games and leaves them with a 3-3 record. Clarkson and North Central will get to enjoy the win for a while: their next game is against Cheraw at 7:30 p.m. on October 18th.

Tray Wilson Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Friday, Central got the W thanks in part to Tray Wilson playing the best football he has all season. Wilson picked up 160 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also punched in a rushing score. He torched the secondary when he pulled down a catch that went for 85 yards.
Buford had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Wilson it was a similar story. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Wilson saw the Yellowjackets), he rushed for 98 yards and a touchdown on only eight carries.
