4A Central Piedmont 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!
A Season-Best Effort from Lane Albright Leads Mount Tabor over Davie
Lane Albright produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Mount Tabor to the win on Friday. Albright threw for 356 yards and four touchdowns while completing 77.4% of his passes, and also rushed for 62 yards and two touchdowns on only seven carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 60 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
Davie had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Albright it was a similar story. Back in November of 2023 (the last time Albright saw the War Eagles), he threw for 267 yards and four touchdowns while completing 78.9% of his passes.
Gamescore: 62.23
Another Game with at Least Seven Total Tackles from Chris Kirby
On Friday, East Forsyth got the W thanks in part to Chris Kirby playing the best football he has all season. Kirby wasn't messing around, picking up two sacks and making 11 total tackles (5.0 for loss). The game was his third straight with seven or more total tackles dating back to last season.
The victory for East Forsyth keeps them at an undefeated 7-0. Kirby and East Forsyth will venture away from home to square off against R.J. Reynolds at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

East Forsyth Gets a Boost from Baker in 62-6 Win
East Forsyth picked up their seventh consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Bryce Baker. Parkland had no answer to Baker as he threw for 304 yards and four touchdowns while completing 84.6% of his passes.
Baker is probably looking forward to his next game, a home matchup against R.J. Reynolds on Friday. When Baker last faced the Demons back in October of 2023, he threw for 230 yards and five touchdowns while completing 75% of his passes.
