Sagamore 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!
Rolando Castillo Drops League-Best Effort on Friday
Starting off the list is Frankfort's Rolando Castillo, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Castillo's rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 105 rushing yards dating back to last season. He was no stranger to the big play, cutting upfield on a catch that went for 56 yards.
Unfortunately for North Montgomery, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Castillo. When Castillo last faced the Chargin' Chargers back in October of 2023, he made 14 total tackles and defended a pass.
Gamescore: 60.98
North Montgomery found a leader in Jack Warren as the squad took down Frankfort on Friday. Warren turned in nothing short of a gem, throwing for 108 yards and three touchdowns while completing 73.3% of his passes, and also rushing for 40 yards.
On the season, Warren has thrown 11 touchdowns while averaging 88.8 passing yards per game.
Gamescore: 36.75
Big Game from Folden As Lebanon Won 35-0
Jackson Folden's big game helped extend Lebanon's winning streak to five on Friday. Folden did his part (and then some), throwing for 327 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 13.6 yards per attempt for the 'W'.
Unfortunately for Southmont, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Folden. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Folden saw the Mounties), he threw for 178 yards and three touchdowns while completing 81.8% of his passes, and also rushed for 57 yards.
Gamescore: 34.90
Jayden Thompson Makes It Two for North Montgomery
Another North Montgomery player making an appearance on this list is Jayden Thompson. He made five total tackles (1.0 for loss).
On the season, Thompson has averaged 7.9 total tackles per game and for the season has 0 sacks. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 4.38 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 48.63 rushing yards.
Gamescore: 34.42
