Valley Christian Gets a Boost from Tinker in 27-14 Win
Starting off the list is Valley Christian's Connor Tinker, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Tinker made 12 total tackles. He was no stranger to the big play, turning on the jets for a run that went for 57 yards.
This season, Tinker has averaged 8.4 total tackles per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 0.88 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 40 rushing yards.

Beau Porter Makes It Two for Valley Christian
Keeping Tinker company is Beau Porter, a fellow Valley Christian player. He picked up 65 receiving yards and a touchdown.
This season, Porter has caught those 1 touchdown while averaging 20 receiving yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after eight games last season, he was only averaging 19 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 34 rushing yards.

He didn't just play on offense: he also picked up a sack, made four total tackles, and defended a pass.
On the year, Parkinson has thrown 22 touchdowns while averaging 242.7 passing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 7.43 passing yards per game.
