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!
Austin Posts Huge Game in 21-14 Loss
Starting off the list is Van Vleck's Corey Austin, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Austin rushed for 233 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 9.3 yards per carry. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his eighth straight game with at least 131 rushing yards dating back to last season.
If the past is any indication, Austin could be in store for another big game when he takes on Rice Consolidated on Friday. When Austin last faced the Raiders back in October of 2023, he rushed for 201 yards and two touchdowns on only 14 carries, and also picked up 30 receiving yards.
