4A 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!
Albert Johnson Dazzles in Fulton Victory
Starting off the list is Fulton's Albert Johnson, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Johnson rushed for 161 yards and a touchdown on only 12 carries. Those 161 rushing yards gave him a new career-high.
Johnson must have South-Doyle's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. When Johnson last faced the Cherokees back in September of 2023, he rushed for 116 yards and four touchdowns, and also picked up 49 receiving yards and a touchdown.

Javon Moulden Turns in Season-Best Performance
Fulton was led to victory by Javon Moulden, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Moulden threw for 219 yards and four touchdowns while completing 86.7% of his passes.
On the season, Moulden has thrown 14 touchdowns while averaging 138.6 passing yards per game.

A Constellation of Stars for Fulton
Another Fulton player making an appearance on this list is Derrick Smith. He picked up 109 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He has become a key player for Fulton: the team is undefeated when he posts at least two receiving touchdowns, but 0-3 otherwise.
Smith might have his next game, a home matchup with Seymour, circled on his calendar. Smith picked up 214 receiving yards and three touchdowns the last time he and the Eagles duked it out back in October of 2023.

Jeremiah Smith Delivers Best Effort of Season
South-Doyle came up short on Friday despite Jeremiah Smith delivering his best game to date. Smith rushed for 13 yards and a touchdown, and also caught a touchdown.
South-Doyle is on a four-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-6. Smith and South-Doyle will have a little extra prep time after the loss as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on Halls at 7:00 p.m. on October 18th.
