Northern Lakes 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!
Jaron Thomas Delivers Electric Performance Vs Wawasee
Concord picked up their eighth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Jaron Thomas. Thomas was unstoppable, rushing for 116 yards and three touchdowns on only ten carries. He also put in work on the defensive side of the ball, picking up 0.5 sacks and making eight total tackles.
If history really does repeat itself, Thomas might just drop another big game when he faces off against Plymouth on Friday. Thomas rushed for 186 yards and four touchdowns on only 14 carries the last time he and the Pilgrims/Rockies duked it out back in October of 2023.
Gamescore: 47.45
NorthWood had to settle for second on Friday, but Austin King sure wasn't going down easily. King was dynamite, forcing a fumble and making seven total tackles. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, forcing a fumble and making seven total tackles.
NorthWood is on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 3-5. King and NorthWood will face off against Goshen at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Big Game from Breveard As Concord Won 44-7
Concord picked up their eighth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Char'Rese Breveard. Breveard did his part (and then some), picking up 143 receiving yards and a touchdown, while also punching in a touchdown on the ground for the 'W'. He was no stranger to the big play, lighting up the secondary with a catch that went for 69 yards.
This year, Breveard has caught 5 touchdowns while averaging 76.2 receiving yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after eight games last season, he was only averaging 29.5 receiving yards per game.
Gamescore: 32.53
A Season-Best Effort from Derek Sherwood Leads Northridge over Goshen
Derek Sherwood produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Northridge to the win on Friday. Sherwood rushed for 113 yards and two touchdowns on only 15 carries.
Goshen had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Sherwood it was a similar story. When Sherwood last faced the RedHawks back in September of 2023, he rushed for 63 yards and two touchdowns on only six carries.
Gamescore: 30.48
Karsyn Rumfelt Makes It Two for Northridge
Keeping Sherwood company is Karsyn Rumfelt, a fellow Northridge player. He rushed for six yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 135 yards and a touchdown. Northridge is undefeated when Rumfelt posts two or more rushing touchdowns, but 0-5 otherwise.
For the year, Rumfelt has thrown 10 touchdowns while averaging 148.1 passing yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after eight games last season, he was only averaging 1.63 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 13 rushing yards.
