This Week's Top Player Performances from Across the League
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances across Friday and Saturday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Colby Weber Earns League's Top Spot
Starting off the list is Holyoke's Colby Weber, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Weber made five total tackles and defended one pass in addition to snagging an interception. He didn't just play on offense: he also made five total tackles and defended one pass in addition to snagging an interception.
The victory got Holyoke back to even at 2-2. Weber and the Dragons will have some time to savor their win since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Wray at 1:00 p.m. on October 4.

Humrich Came Up Big in Burlington's 50-6 Win
Scout Humrich was instrumental in extending Burlington's winning streak to three on Friday. Nobody could stop Humrich as he rushed for 112 yards and two scores on only five carries, and also threw for 70 yards and one TD. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 80-yard run.
For the year, Humrich has run in 5 touchdowns while averaging 72.7 rushing yards per game.

Jason Saucedo Makes It Two for Burlington
Another Burlington player making an appearance on this list is Jason Saucedo. He rushed for 144 yards and one TD on only 12 carries. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 72-yard run.
If history really does repeat itself, Saucedo might just drop another big game when he faces off against Denver Christian on Saturday. When Saucedo last faced the Thunder back in September of 2024, he rushed for 122 yards and a pair of scores on only 15 carries.

Aaron Tena Goes Supernova in Wray Defeat
While Aaron Tena delivered a dominant effort on Friday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Wray. Tena turned in nothing short of a gem, picking up 86 receiving yards and one TD, while also rushing for 35 yards and one touchdown.
This is the second loss in a row for Wray and nudges their season record down to 2-2. Tena and the Eagles will have a little extra prep time after the defeat as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on Holyoke at 1:00 p.m. on October 4.

Thomson Posts Huge Game in 28-27 Win
Yuma (84) came into Friday's contest against Torrington (16) with a disadvantage in their respective state rankings, but Christian Thomson wasn't bothered. Thomson was dynamite on Friday, rushing for 146 yards and one touchdown on only 14 carries.
The win was the third in a row for Yuma, bringing their record up to 3-0. Coming up, Thomson and the Outlaws will look to defend their home field on Friday against Brush at 7:00 p.m.
