DCIAA - Stripes 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!
Antonio Washington Turns in Season-Best Performance
On Friday, Bell got the W thanks in part to Antonio Washington playing the best football he has all season. Washington rushed for 251 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 12.0 yards per carry, and also threw for 22 yards and a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 80-yard run.
McKinley Tech's probably not too fond of Washington given he always seems to get the better of them. When Washington last faced the Trainers back in October of 2023, he rushed for 115 yards and two touchdowns on only six carries.
Gamescore: 66.17
Aaron Perkins Dazzles in Bell Victory
Keeping Washington company is Aaron Perkins, a fellow Bell player. He rushed for 81 yards and a touchdown.
On the season, Perkins has run in 3 touchdowns while averaging 33.5 rushing yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 11.33 rushing yards per game.
Gamescore: 47.25
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Friday Arontae Harley stepped things up a notch to give Anacostia the 'W'. Cardozo had no answer to Harley as he threw for 127 yards and three touchdowns while completing 77.8% of his passes, and also rushed for 67 yards and a touchdown on only five carries.
Anacostia's win bumped their record up to 2-4. Harley and Anacostia will play host again on Saturday to welcome Ron Brown, where kickoff is scheduled at 2:00 p.m.
