AAAAA Region 2 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!
Antwann Hill Jr Crosses Big Stat Threshold
On Friday, Houston County got the W thanks in part to Antwann Hill Jr playing the best football he has all season. Hill Jr threw for 489 yards and eight touchdowns while completing 74.2% of his passes, and also picked up 30 receiving yards. The performance once again pushed his average passing yardage north of 300 yards per game (314). He is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in the last seven games he's played dating back to last season.
The win (which was Houston County's third in a row) raised their record to 6-1. Hill Jr and Houston County will get to enjoy the win for a while: their next game is against Coffee at 7:30 p.m. on October 18th.
