Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played on Thursday and Friday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Fort Worth THESA Wins Seventh-Straight Thanks to Layton Francis
Fort Worth THESA picked up their seventh consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Layton Francis. Francis did his part (and then some), throwing for 184 yards and four touchdowns on only 13 passes, while also rushing for 115 yards and a touchdown on only eight carries for the 'W'.
For the season, Francis has thrown 26 touchdowns (and and only 2 picks) while averaging 136.8 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 57.75 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 97.88 rushing yards.

Andrew Keller and Co. Win Seventh in a Row
Fort Worth THESA picked up their seventh consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Andrew Keller. Keller did his part (and then some), picking up 111 receiving yards and two touchdowns, while also punching in a touchdown on the ground for the 'W'.
This season, Keller has caught 15 touchdowns while averaging 74.5 receiving yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 45.5 receiving yards per game.

Austin Royals Homeschool Gets a Boost from Frazier in 62-13 Victory
Austin Royals HomeSchool picked up their sixth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Benjamin Frazier. Frazier turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 142 yards and three touchdowns on only five carries. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 142 rushing yards dating back to last season.
Frazier and Austin Royals HomeSchool will venture away from home to square off against BVCHEA HomeSchool at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. The Royals had to take a loss when they last met the Mustangs, but Frazier had little to do with the loss: he rushed for 95 yards and two touchdowns. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
