DuKane 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!
Yorke Came Up Big in Wheaton-Warrenville South's 27-14 Victory
Starting off the list is Wheaton-Warrenville South's Owen Yorke, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Yorke rushed for 203 yards and two touchdowns, and also picked up 70 receiving yards. He is becoming a predictor of Wheaton-Warrenville South's success: when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns the team is 3-1 (and 1-2 when he doesn't).
Wheaton-Warrenville South now has a winning record of 4-3. Yorke and Wheaton-Warrenville South are taking a road trip to take on Batavia at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Bodi Anderson Delivers Best Effort of Season
Bodi Anderson produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Batavia to the win on Friday. Anderson rushed for 86 yards and a touchdown on only six carries, and also threw for 140 yards and two touchdowns. The bulk of those rushing yards came from one huge play: a run that gained an incredible 80 yards.
For the season, Anderson has thrown 10 touchdowns while averaging 134.7 passing yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 6.29 passing yards per game.

Ethan Plumb Goes Supernova in St. Charles North Victory
Ethan Plumb was instrumental in extending St. Charles North's winning streak to three on Friday. Plumb did his part (and then some), throwing for 275 yards and three touchdowns while completing 78.6% of his passes for the 'W'. He is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in the last three games he's played dating back to last season.
This season, Plumb has thrown 17 touchdowns (and and only 2 picks) while averaging 206.7 passing yards per game.

Keaton Reinke Makes It Two for St. Charles North
Keeping Plumb company is Keaton Reinke, a fellow St. Charles North player. He picked up 172 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He torched the secondary when he pulled down a catch that went for 80 yards.
This year, Reinke has caught 10 touchdowns while averaging 112.4 receiving yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after seven games last season, he had one receiving touchdown.

Sean Keegan Turns in Season-Best Effort
St. Charles East came up short on Friday despite Sean Keegan delivering his best game to date. Keegan rushed for 71 yards and a touchdown. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 72-yard run.
St. Charles East has been struggling recently as they've lost three of their last four games, which put a noticeable dent in their 2-5 record this season. Keegan and St. Charles East will challenge Geneva at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
