2A Catawba Valley Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played from last Wednesday through Saturday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Willis Jr Made His Presence Known in Bunker Hill's 35-21 Win
Starting off the list is Bunker Hill's Jason Willis Jr, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Willis Jr rushed for 230 yards and three touchdowns on only 14 carries. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 95-yard run.
If history really does repeat itself, Willis Jr might just drop another big game when he faces off against East Burke on Friday. Willis Jr rushed for 155 yards and three touchdowns on only 11 carries, and also picked up 34 receiving yards the last time he and the Cavaliers duked it out back in October of 2023.

Lincolnton's first victory this season bumped their record up to 1-4. Bost and Lincolnton will head out on the road to square off against Bandys at 12:00 p.m. on Saturday.

Kendall Roberts Turns in Season-Best Effort
Maiden came up short on Wednesday despite Kendall Roberts delivering his best game to date. Roberts rushed for 151 yards and a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
If the past is any indication, Roberts could be in store for another big game when he takes on West Caldwell on Friday. When Roberts last faced the Warriors back in September of 2023, he rushed for 123 yards and two touchdowns.
