Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Friday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!

Tyson Tuck's Big Game Leads Rangeview over Lakewood

Rangeview's seven-game losing streak dating back to last season on Friday is now nothing but a memory thanks in part to Tyson Tuck. Tuck turned in nothing short of a gem: he rushed for 171 yards and three touchdowns on only 14 carries, and also threw for 13 yards and a touchdown.

The win got Rangeview back to even at 1-1. Tuck and Rangeview are taking a road trip to face off against Westminster at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Hayes Posts Huge Game in 24-18 Loss

Legacy had to settle for second on Friday, but Dane Hayes sure wasn't going down easily. Hayes turned in nothing short of a gem: he picked up two sacks and made seven total tackles (4.0 for loss).

Legacy's loss ended a three-game streak of wins at home dating back to last season and dropped them to 0-2. Hayes and Legacy will take on Grandview at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday.

Gamescore: 25.50

Tyler Anderson Posts Another Huge Game Against Rocky Mountain

Keeping Hayes company is Tyler Anderson, a fellow Legacy player. He rushed for 149 yards and a touchdown. He was up against Rocky Mountain, which might explain his strong game: he put up some impressive numbers the last time he faced them back in September of 2023.

Gamescore: 23.15

Gavin Lusk Delivers Electric Effort Vs Mountain Vista

Erie was sadly handed a defeat on Friday, but Gavin Lusk did his best to prevent it. Lusk turned in nothing short of a gem: he rushed for 65 yards and two touchdowns.

Erie's loss ended an eight-game streak of wins at home dating back to last season and dropped them to 1-2. Lusk and Erie will have a little extra prep time after the defeat as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on Fort Collins at 7:00 p.m. on September 20th.
