AAA Region 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!
Big Game from Robinson As Walhalla Won 49-7
Starting off the list is Walhalla's Landon Robinson, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Robinson rushed for 162 yards and four touchdowns on only 12 carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 52 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
If the past is any indication, Robinson could be in store for another big game when he takes on West-Oak on Friday. Robinson rushed for 206 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 9.0 yards per carry the last time he and the Warriors duked it out back in October of 2023.
