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!
Sam Jones Earns League's Top Spot
Starting off the list is Legacy Christian Academy's Sam Jones, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Jones made ten total tackles (1.0 for loss) and defended a pass. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making ten total tackles (1.0 for loss) and defending a pass.
Legacy Christian Academy pushed their record up to 5-1 with the victory, which was their seventh straight at home dating back to last season. Jones' next game is against Bishop Lynch on Friday, where he'll look to repeat that solid effort.
