C1 District 1 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!
Nixon Ligouri Delivers Electric Effort Vs Fairbury
Starting off the list is Auburn's Nixon Ligouri, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Ligouri rushed for 141 yards and three touchdowns on only 11 carries.
Auburn's victory was their eighth straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 6-1. Ligouri will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant effort when he faces off against Syracuse on Friday.
Gamescore: 49.35
Brant Gulizia Makes It Two for Auburn
Another Auburn player making an appearance on this list is Brant Gulizia. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 100 rushing yards dating back to last season.
For the year, Gulizia has averaged 9.6 total tackles per game. It gets even more impressive: after seven games last season, he was only averaging two receiving yards per game. This year he is averaging 16.71 receiving yards.
Gamescore: 46.02
Mason Lintz Turns in Season-Best Effort
Mason Lintz produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Syracuse to the win on Friday. Lintz rushed for 157 yards and three touchdowns on only 11 carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
The victory (which was Syracuse's third in a row) raised their record to 4-3. Lintz and Syracuse will square off against Auburn at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

A Season-Best Performance from Cy Petersen Leads Syracuse over Falls City
On Friday, Syracuse got the W thanks in part to Cy Petersen playing the best football he has all season. Petersen rushed for 146 yards and three touchdowns on only ten carries. The performance marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in October of 2023.
Falls City's probably not too fond of Petersen given he always seems to get the better of them. When Petersen last faced the Tigers back in September of 2023, he rushed for 116 yards and three touchdowns.
Gamescore: 43.20
A Constellation of Stars for Auburn
Another Auburn player making an appearance on this list is Camden Taylor. He rushed for 81 yards on only nine carries.
On the year, Taylor has averaged 53.6 rushing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 2.14 rushing yards per game.
