Suburban One - National Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Thursday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Owen Pinkerton and Co. Win Eighth in a Row
Owen Pinkerton's big game helped extend Central Bucks South's winning streak to eight on Thursday. Pinkerton turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 60 yards and a touchdown on only seven carries, while also throwing for 96 yards and two touchdowns.
Pinkerton might have his next game, a home matchup with Neshaminy, circled on his calendar. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Pinkerton saw the Skins), he rushed for 93 yards and two touchdowns on only seven carries, and also threw for 34 yards and a touchdown.

Connor Simkiss Dazzles in Central Bucks East Loss
While Connor Simkiss delivered a dominant effort on Thursday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Central Bucks East. Neshaminy had no answer to Simkiss as he made 15 total tackles (1.0 for loss).
Simkiss is probably looking forward to his next game, a road matchup against Pennridge on Friday. Simkiss picked up 0.5 sacks and made 12 total tackles the last time he and the Rams duked it out back in September of 2023.
Gamescore: 24.50
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Thursday Nick Sassano stepped things up a notch to give Neshaminy the 'W'. Sassano was unstoppable, picking up 48 receiving yards.
Neshaminy pushed their record up to 6-2 with the victory, which was their fourth straight at home. Sassano's next contest is against Central Bucks South on Friday, where he'll look to repeat that solid effort.
