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!
Dominique Ball Dazzles in Westover Victory
Starting off the list is Westover's Dominique Ball, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Ball rushed for 224 yards and three touchdowns. Those 224 rushing yards gave him a new career-high.
Westover's victory bumped their record up to 6-1. Ball and Westover will have some time to savor their win since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Monroe at 7:30 p.m. on October 18th.

Duncan Jr Posts Huge Game in 35-7 Win
Bryian Duncan Jr was instrumental in extending Cairo's winning streak to four on Friday. Duncan Jr was dynamite, rushing for 215 yards while picking up 12.6 yards per carry. His longest rush was for an incredible 90 yards.
Cairo pushed their record up to 4-2 with the win, which was their third straight at home. Duncan Jr and Cairo will stay at home for another week and welcome Monroe at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.

Amarion Donaldson Turns in Season-Best Performance
Sadly, Amarion Donaldson posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Bainbridge over Westover on Friday. Donaldson picked up a sack, forced a fumble, and made nine total tackles (2.0 for loss).
Bainbridge is on an eight-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-7. Donaldson and Bainbridge will get a bit of extra time to process the loss as their next game is a ways off. They'll take on Peach County at 7:30 p.m. on October 18th.
Gamescore: 24.75
Keyon Thomas Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Friday, Westover got the W thanks in part to Keyon Thomas playing the best football he has all season. Thomas threw for 111 yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 32 yards and a touchdown.
Thomas and Westover will have some time to savor their win since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Monroe at 7:30 p.m. on October 18th. The last time Thomas took on the Golden Tornadoes, he threw for 188 yards and two touchdowns. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

A Season-Best Performance from Brooks Hines Leads Bainbridge over Westover
Sadly, Brooks Hines posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Bainbridge over Westover on Friday. Hines threw for 201 yards and two touchdowns.
Hines and Bainbridge will have a little extra prep time after the loss as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on Peach County at 7:30 p.m. on October 18th. The match will pit Hines up against the Trojans' star QB Don "Dj" Hudson Jr.. With so much talent on the field, fans are surely in for an exciting game. The only thing left to see is who brings home the W.
