Voting closes at 11:59 p.m. Sunday, Sep. 22nd. The winner will be announced in the following week’s poll. Here are this week’s nominees:

The Bruins’ quarterback was close to perfect, throwing for three touchdowns while completing 11 of 13 passes in a 49-14 romp over Fort Dorchester. Jackson also had a 43-yard touchdown run.

Richardson turned in a near flawless effort in Pee Dee’s 48-16 romp over previously undefeated Florence Christian. The senior quarterback was 11-of-14 for 202 yards and 4 touchdowns. He also had 5 carries for 135 yards and 2 touchdowns. In addition, Richards had an interception on defense.

The 6-foot, 165-pound senior rocked on both sides of the ball in a 50-36 win over Bluffton. Singletary ran 15 times for 149 yards and 2 touchdowns. On defense, he returned two interceptions for touchdowns.

Thompson is in his first year as the Bulldogs’ starting quarterback and he is playing like a star. In a 43-26 win over Ridge View, Thompson was 10-of-13 for 185 yards and 3 touchdowns while also running 22 times for 196 yards and a touchdown. And as if that wasn’t enough, Thompson averaged 41 yards on 4 punts.

The 6-foot, 170-pound senior intercepted 2 passes and made 10 tackles in the Griffins’ 33-8 pounding of previously undefeated Lewisville.

What didn’t Weaver do in the Rams’ runaway 55-14 win over Belton-Honea Path? The Appalachian State commit caught two touchdown passes, returned a kickoff 81 yards for a touchdown and returned an interception 25 yards for a touchdown. 

Foster turned in a great dual threat game at quarterback in a 43-6 victory over cross-border rival Polk County (N.C.). The 5-foot-11 junior was 7-of-12 for 175 yards and 2 touchdowns. On the ground he had 6 carries for 137 yards and a touchdown.

Ballard threw for 267 yards and 3 touchdowns to three different receivers while running for 57 yards and a touchdown in a 35-28 win over Hanahan.

The star tailback ran 14 times for 183 yards and 2 touchdowns in a 42-19 victory over Augusta (Ga.) Christian. Fludd also caught a 30-yard touchdown pass and made a couple of tackles on defense.

Offing was 16-of-26 for 216 yards and 2 touchdowns with an interception in the Silver Foxes’ 35-0 shutout of Gray Collegiate Academy. The 6-foot, 185-pound junior also had a rushing touchdown and punted twice for a 41.5-yard average.
