SCISA 2A Region 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!
Reichley Made His Presence Known in St. John's Christian Academy's 55-26 Victory
Starting off the list is St. John's Christian Academy's Dor Reichley, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Reichley rushed for 197 yards and four touchdowns on only 14 carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 58 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
St. John's Christian Academy's win ended a six-game drought at home dating back to last season and bumped them up to 3-5. Reichley and St. John's Christian Academy will welcome Hilton Head Prep at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.

Jordan Cheever and Co. Win Sixth in a Row
Jordan Cheever's big game helped extend Bethesda Academy's winning streak to six on Friday. Cheever turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 115 yards and two touchdowns on only 11 carries. Those 115 rushing yards gave him a new career-high.
Bethesda Academy pushed their record up to 6-2 with the win, which was their 11th straight at home dating back to last season. Cheever and Bethesda Academy will have some time to savor their victory since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Pee Dee Academy at 7:30 p.m. on October 25th.
