AAAAAA Region 7 Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Wednesday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Brayden Tyson Turns in Season-Best Effort
Brayden Tyson produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Brookwood to the win on Wednesday. Tyson rushed for 362 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 19.1 yards per carry, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest rush was for an incredible 82 yards.
Unfortunately for Parkview, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Tyson. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Tyson saw the Panthers), he rushed for 149 yards and a touchdown while picking up 8.8 yards per carry, and also picked up 43 receiving yards.

Darnell Kelly's Big Game Leads Peachtree Ridge over Duluth
Peachtree Ridge found a leader in Darnell Kelly as the squad took down Duluth on Wednesday. Duluth had no answer to Kelly as he threw for 237 yards and four touchdowns on only 19 passes, and also rushed for 48 yards and a touchdown.
Duluth had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Kelly it was a similar story. When Kelly last faced the Wildcats back in November of 2023, he rushed for 46 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 179 yards and a touchdown.

Jahmir Joseph Delivers Electric Effort Vs Peachtree Ridge
While Jahmir Joseph delivered a dominant effort on Wednesday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Duluth. Joseph turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 96 yards and a touchdown on only 11 carries, while also picking up 49 receiving yards.
Duluth's defeat dropped their record down to 4-3. A feisty cat fight will be fought when Wildcats faces off against Parkview at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.

A Season-Best Effort from Bryce Green Leads Peachtree Ridge over Duluth
On Wednesday, Peachtree Ridge got the W thanks in part to Bryce Green playing the best football he has all season. Green picked up 72 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 41 yards. The bulk of those receiving yards came from one huge play: a catch that gained an incredible 60 yards.
This year, Green has caught 3 touchdowns while averaging 30.1 receiving yards per game.
