5A District 7 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!
Connor Mccazzio Dazzles in Springstead Win
Starting off the list is Springstead's Connor Mccazzio, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Mccazzio rushed for 165 yards and a touchdown on only 15 carries, and also picked up 41 receiving yards. That's the most rushing yards he has posted since back in October of 2023.
Mccazzio might have his next game, a road matchup with Lecanto, circled on his calendar. Mccazzio rushed for 136 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 8.5 yards per carry the last time he and the Panthers duked it out back in November of 2023.
Gamescore: 44.85
Harrold Came Up Big in Gaither's 42-0 Win
Lajessie Harrold's big game helped extend Gaither's winning streak to three on Friday. Harrold did his part (and then some), picking up two sacks, making seven total tackles, and defending a pass in addition to snagging an interception which he returned one-yard for a touchdown for the 'W'.
Gaither's win was their fourth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 6-2. Harrold and Gaither will welcome Hillsborough at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 30.75
Antonio Henley Makes It Two for Gaither
Keeping Harrold company is Antonio Henley, a fellow Gaither player. He picked up three sacks and made eight total tackles (4.0 for loss).
This season, Henley has averaged 4.8 total tackles per game and for the season has 10 sacks.
Gamescore: 30.50
Jadon Jaimes Makes It Two for Springstead
The second Springstead player making an appearance here is Jadon Jaimes, and for good reason. He made nine total tackles.
Jaimes is probably looking forward to his next game, a road matchup against Lecanto on Friday. When Jaimes last faced the Panthers back in November of 2023, he picked up a sack, forced a fumble, and made 15 total tackles.
