7A Region 2 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!
Aj Alexander Delivers Best Effort of Season
On Friday, Dothan got the W thanks in part to Aj Alexander playing the best football he has all season. Alexander's rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his sixth straight game with at least 136 rushing yards dating back to last season. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 74-yard run.
If history really does repeat itself, Alexander might just drop another big game when he faces off against Auburn on Friday. Alexander rushed for 141 yards and two touchdowns the last time he and the Tigers duked it out back in September of 2023.
