Three Rivers (8 Man) 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!
Brayden Lawson Delivers Best Effort of Season
Marmaton Valley was led to victory by Brayden Lawson, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Lawson rushed for 146 yards and five touchdowns on only eight carries, and also threw for 157 yards and two touchdowns on only 14 passes, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He didn't just play on offense: he also picked up two sacks, forced two fumbles, and made 15 total tackles.
Lawson might have his next game, a home matchup with St. Paul, circled on his calendar. Lawson threw for 346 yards and seven touchdowns while completing 80% of his passes, and also rushed for 83 yards and two touchdowns the last time he and the Indians duked it out back in October of 2023.
