Suburban One - National Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Thursday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Central Bucks South Wins Eighth-Straight Thanks to Owen Pinkerton
Central Bucks South picked up their eighth consecutive win on Thursday thanks in part to Owen Pinkerton. Abington had no answer to Pinkerton as he rushed for 60 yards and a touchdown on only seven carries, and also threw for 96 yards and two touchdowns.
If history really does repeat itself, Pinkerton might just drop another big game when he faces off against Neshaminy on Friday. Pinkerton rushed for 93 yards and two touchdowns on only seven carries, and also threw for 34 yards and a touchdown the last time he and the Skins duked it out back in October of 2023.

Connor Simkiss Dazzles in Central Bucks East Defeat
Central Bucks East had to settle for second on Thursday, but Connor Simkiss sure wasn't going down easily. Nobody could stop Simkiss as he made 15 total tackles (1.0 for loss).
Simkiss might have his next game, a road matchup with Pennridge, circled on his calendar. When Simkiss last faced the Rams back in September of 2023, he picked up 0.5 sacks and made 12 total tackles.
Gamescore: 24.50
Neshaminy found a leader in Nick Sassano as the team took down Central Bucks East on Thursday. Sassano did his part (and then some), picking up 48 receiving yards for the 'W'.
Neshaminy's win was their fourth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 6-2. Sassano will have a chance to log another big game when he takes on Central Bucks South on Friday.
