A Season-Best Performance from Sam Johnson Leads Arapahoe over Cherokee Trail

On Friday, Arapahoe got the W thanks in part to Sam Johnson playing the best football he has all season. Johnson made eight total tackles (1.0 for loss) and defended two passes in addition to snagging an interception which he returned one-yard for a touchdown.

Arapahoe's win was their fourth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 6-3. Johnson and Arapahoe will square off against Eaglecrest at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Tyson Watson Makes It Two for Arapahoe

Another Arapahoe player making an appearance on this list is Tyson Watson. He made four total tackles and defended a pass. He didn't just play on offense: he also made four total tackles and defended a pass in addition to snagging an interception.

Xay Neto Delivers Best Performance of Season

Xay Neto produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Grandview to the win on Friday. Neto picked up 116 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He has become a key player for Grandview: the team is 3-1 when he posts at least 80 receiving yards, but 2-3 otherwise.

Neto will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant performance when he faces off against Cherry Creek on Friday. The contest will pit Neto up against the Bruins' star pass catcher Jeremiah Hoffman. 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.
