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!
A Season-Best Performance from Johnathan Schroeder Leads Oxford over Kiowa County
Oxford was led to victory by Johnathan Schroeder, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Schroeder rushed for 188 yards and five touchdowns while picking up 7.8 yards per carry, and also threw for 155 yards and three touchdowns while completing 75% of his passes, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
The victory (which was Oxford's fourth in a row) raised their record to 5-1. Schroeder's next match is against Udall on Friday, where he'll look to repeat that solid effort.

Cordell Jordan Dazzles in Oxford Victory
Another Oxford player making an appearance on this list is Cordell Jordan. He rushed for 133 yards and a touchdown, and also picked up 64 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Jordan is probably looking forward to his next game, a home matchup against Udall on Friday. When Jordan last faced the Eagles back in October of 2023, he rushed for 106 yards and three touchdowns on only 14 carries.

Koop Made His Presence Known in West Elk's 56-0 Win
West Elk picked up their sixth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Creyo Koop. Koop was unstoppable, rushing for 118 yards and three touchdowns on only nine carries, while also catching a touchdown. He is on a roll when it comes to rushing touchdowns, as he's now punched in two or more in the last six games he's played dating back to last season.
Koop must have Sedan's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Koop saw the Devils), he rushed for 189 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 9.9 yards per carry, and also picked up 99 receiving yards and a touchdown.

West Elk Wins Sixth-Straight Thanks to Trent Haag
Trent Haag's big game helped extend West Elk's winning streak to six on Friday. Sedan had no answer to Haag as he threw for 97 yards and three touchdowns on perfect 5-for-5 passing, and also rushed for 55 yards on only five carries.
Haag must have Sedan's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Haag rushed for 78 yards and three touchdowns on only 11 carries, and also threw for 204 yards and two touchdowns while completing 92.3% of his passes the last time he and the Devils duked it out back in September of 2023.
