3A District 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!
Hudson Register Delivers Best Effort of Season
On Friday, Baker County got the W thanks in part to Hudson Register playing the best football he has all season. Register rushed for 121 yards and two touchdowns on only ten carries, and also threw for 187 yards and a touchdown while completing 81.8% of his passes. The performance marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in November of 2023.
On the season, Register has thrown 8 touchdowns while averaging 182.8 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 41 passer rating per game. This year he is averaging 114.9 passer rating.
