Zach Morgan Dazzles in Citronelle Win
Starting off the list is Citronelle's Zach Morgan, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Morgan picked up three sacks and made 12 total tackles (4.0 for loss). He has been hot recently, having posted six or more total tackles the last six times he's played.
The win (which was Citronelle's third in a row) raised their record to 6-2. Morgan's next matchup is against LeFlore on Friday, where he'll look to repeat that solid effort.

Kelvin Brisker Delivers Best Effort of Season

Brisker and Vigor will square off against Williamson at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Brisker will face off against Alvin Dinkins, the Lions' star quarterback. So who wins this QB-duel? There's only one way to know for sure.
