Just as we did last week, we feel it is very important to name some of the top MVP's after a very competitive week of football. Below, while there could have been many more players on this list, we listed some of our favorite Offensive and Defensive MVP's from week 7!
<strong>Jaiden Credle (RB)-</strong> Carver-Columbus
Credle helped Carver-Columbus to dominate LaGrange High, as he ran for over 200 yards, and 4 TD’s. This performance has helped Credle put himself at 12 total TD’s so far this year, along with 978 total rushing yards. Along with this, Credle's strong performance has helped him to average about 11 yards a carry.
<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="33893" first="Sam" last="Horn"] (QB)-</strong> Collins Hill
When Collins Hill played Peachtree Ridge, it is sad to say, but Peachtree did not even stand a chance. By the end of the game, the final score read: 63-0, even after [player_tooltip player_id="33861" first="Travis" last="Hunter"] left the game with an injury. Regardless, QB [player_tooltip player_id="33893" first="Sam" last="Horn"] managed to do his part, as he totaled over 270 yards in the air, with 4 TD’s. This in itself was enough to put the opponent in a hard place to compete.
<strong>J'len Lackey RB-</strong> (Hart County)
As Hart County dominated Franklin County 37-0, Lackey continued to add on to his rushing yards total, while also being able to contribute in a big way with the TD's he was able to put on the board. By the end of the game, Lackley totaled 237 yards on the ground, while also rushing for 3 TD's. These 3 TD's accounted for over half of the total points in which Hart County put up in their win.
<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="33862" first="Gunner" last="Stockton"] (QB)-</strong> Rabun County
On any given week, it should come as no shocker that Stockton had one of the best weeks in the state. This past Friday, on only 17 passes, Stockton threw for over 240 yards, and 3 TD’s. Even more impressively, he also ran for over 100 yards, and a TD. This effort helped Rabun County win a close match up against Pierce County, in which they saw themselves on the positive end of a 28-21 score.
<strong>Jace McLendon (DL)-</strong> Macon County
In Macon County's win against Taylor County, McLendon had 3.5 sacks, which is almost half of his current sack total. Due to this performance, Mclendon now has a total of 7.5 sacks, and 23 total tackles. Out of all of these tackles, 18 of them are solo tackles, and 4 of these 18 total tackles were made last Friday.
<strong>Colton Smith (DL)-</strong> Washington County
Even though Washington County ended the game with a 27-23 loss, Smith still had a great game, in which his contributions could have just as easily seen his team with an opposite result. In this game, Smith had a total of 7 QB Pressures, and 7 tackles for his team. To add to this, he also had a total of 2 sacks, making for a strong outing on his part.
<strong>WC Fulton (DL)-</strong> Lowndes
Fulton not only continued to play at a high level in his team's win against Alcovy, but he made a big difference in the game as he had a total of 2 sacks, and 2 tackles for a loss. Entering into week 7 of the season, he has a total of 17 tackles, and 7.5 sacks, which is likely to continue to grow before the regular season comes to a close.
<strong>Myles Oliver (DB)-</strong> Douglas County
During Douglas County, Myles Oliver helped his team escape with a 36-20 win due to his strong performance on the defensive side of the ball. In the game, Oliver had 5 total tackles, which were all solo tackles. Outside of this, he managed to get his hands on 2 interceptions, in which 1 was returned for a TD.
