1A Region 6 Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played on Thursday and Friday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Tyshun Willis Goes Supernova in Velma Jackson Win
Tyshun Willis's big game helped extend Velma Jackson's winning streak to six on Friday. Noxapater had no answer to Willis as he forced a fumble and made five total tackles (5.0 for loss). Willis really caught the secondary sleeping when he pulled down a catch that went for 70 yards.
Willis and Velma Jackson will get to enjoy the win for a while: their next game is against Nanih Waiya at 7:00 p.m. on October 31st. The last time Willis took on the Warriors, he made ten total tackles (3.0 for loss). Can he match (or beat) that performance?

Ryder Henderson Has Career-Day on Friday
Ryder Henderson posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Friday. He rushed for 182 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 7.6 yards per carry.
French Camp Academy is on a nine-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-8. Henderson and French Camp Academy will have a little extra prep time after the loss as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on McAdams at 7:00 p.m. on October 31st.

French Camp Academy Gets a Boost from Wright in 38-34 Loss
Another French Camp Academy player making an appearance on this list is Logan Wright. He rushed for 96 yards and three touchdowns. He didn't just play on offense: he also made six total tackles and defended a pass.
Wright and French Camp Academy will have a little extra prep time after the defeat as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on McAdams at 7:00 p.m. on October 31st. The Panthers got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Bulldogs, probably because Wright had a solid game then too: he rushed for 67 yards and a touchdown, and also threw for 113 yards and two touchdowns. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
