Division I 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!
Chris Ciarniello's Rushing Yards a New Career-High
Starting off the list is North Kingstown's Chris Ciarniello, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. On Friday Ciarniello made eight total tackles, good enough to also set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
Ciarniello and North Kingstown will be playing in front of their home fans against Barrington at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Skippers got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Eagles, probably because Ciarniello had a solid game then too: he made ten total tackles and snagged an interception. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

Bishop Hendricken Wins Third-Straight Thanks to Jeremy Seidi
Jeremy Seidi's big game helped extend Bishop Hendricken's winning streak to three on Friday. Seidi did his part (and then some), picking up a sack and making five total tackles for the 'W'. He showed off some serious burst, cutting through the defense on one rush that went for 62 yards.
This season, Seidi has averaged 4.1 total tackles per game and for the season has 4 sacks. It gets even more impressive: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 1.43 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 61.29 rushing yards.

Big Game from Cornell As Cranston West Fell 28-21
Cranston West was sadly handed a defeat on Friday, but Kelan Cornell did his best to prevent it. Barrington had no answer to Cornell as he threw for 190 yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 46 yards and a touchdown.
This year, Cornell has thrown 11 touchdowns while averaging 151.9 passing yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he had seven passing touchdowns.
