6A Region III District 17 Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played from last Thursday through Saturday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Aaron Deleon Goes Supernova in Stratford Win
Starting off the list is Stratford's Aaron Deleon, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Deleon threw for 315 yards and three touchdowns while completing 73.7% of his passes, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground.
Deleon must have Jersey Village's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Deleon threw for 409 yards and four touchdowns while completing 80.8% of his passes, and also rushed for 82 yards and two touchdowns the last time he and the Falcons duked it out back in November of 2023.

Isaac Richardson Delivers Best Performance of Season
Sadly, Isaac Richardson posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Memorial over Cy-Fair on Friday. Richardson picked up three sacks and made eight total tackles (4.0 for loss).
Cy-Fair had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Richardson it was a similar story. Richardson picked up two sacks and made 11 total tackles the last time he and the Bobcats duked it out back in November of 2023.
