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
On Friday, Marmaton Valley got the W thanks in part to Brayden Lawson playing the best football he has all season. 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 also put in work on the defensive side of the ball, picking up two sacks, forcing two fumbles, and making 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.
