Brady Dapkus, Southern Boone

If 185 total yards weren't enough, how about Dapkus' three total touchdowns? He scored a rushing, receiving and kick return touchdown, plus he grabbed the game-sealing interception to hold off Quincy Notre Dame.

Daqual Wright, Battle

Battle's road trip to take on Kapuan Mt. Carmel didn't end like the team wanted, but Wright showed what he's capable of as a wide receiver 1 with 11 receptions for 202 yards and a score.

Carson Jacaway, Father Tolton

Tolton's offense romped again in a 54-0 win over Bishop DuBorg. Jacaway was the catalyst with 123 yards on the ground plus a score.
