4A-1 Region IV District 15 Top Player Performances of the Week
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!
Vladimir Garcia Turns in Season-Best Performance
El Campo was led to victory by Vladimir Garcia, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Garcia rushed for 241 yards and two touchdowns on only 13 carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 66 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
Garcia and El Campo are taking a road trip to face off against Bay City at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. The matchup will pit Garcia up against the Blackcats' star rusher Jada Andrews. With so much talent on the field, fans are surely in for an exciting game. The only thing left to see is who brings home the W.

Big Game from Andrews As Bay City Won 40-21
Jada Andrews was instrumental in extending Bay City's winning streak to five on Friday. Nobody could stop Andrews as he rushed for 136 yards and three touchdowns, and also picked up 57 receiving yards. His rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 121 rushing yards dating back to last season.
Andrews might have his next game, a home matchup with El Campo, circled on his calendar. Andrews rushed for 178 yards and three touchdowns the last time he and the Ricebirds duked it out back in October of 2023.

Alex Estrada Goes Supernova in Bay City Win
Another Bay City player making an appearance on this list is Alex Estrada. He threw for 294 yards and three touchdowns while completing 78.3% of his passes. He is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in the last four games he's played dating back to last season.
Estrada and Bay City will challenge El Campo at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. The Blackcats got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Ricebirds, probably because Estrada had a solid game then too: he rushed for 22 yards and a touchdown, and also threw for 144 yards on 13 of 24 attempts. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
