5A Metro North Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played on Thursday and Friday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Stevenson Posts Huge Game in 17-14 Loss
Starting off the list is Northglenn's Josiah'Ez Stevenson, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Stevenson rushed for 163 yards and a touchdown while picking up 9.6 yards per carry, and also picked up 87 receiving yards and a touchdown. He showed off some serious burst, turning on the afterburners on one carry for 61 yards.
Stevenson and Northglenn will face off against Mountain Range at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The last time Stevenson took on the Mustangs, he rushed for 74 yards and a touchdown, and also picked up 44 receiving yards. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

Kiewiet Came Up Big in Westminster's 28-15 Win
Mason Kiewiet put up the most rushing yards he's had since back in October of 2023 on Friday. He rushed for 204 yards while picking up 11.3 yards per carry, and also threw for 175 yards and a touchdown while completing 76.9% of his passes.
Mountain Range's probably not too fond of Kiewiet given he always seems to get the better of them. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Kiewiet saw the Mustangs), he threw for 344 yards and five touchdowns while completing 78.9% of his passes, and also rushed for 41 yards and a touchdown.

Overland Wins Third-Straight Thanks to Dejay Davenport
Overland picked up their third consecutive win on Thursday thanks in part to Dejay Davenport. Davenport was dynamite, picking up 193 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He is becoming a predictor of Overland's success: when he posts at least two receiving touchdowns the team is undefeated (and 1-4 when he doesn't).
The victory got Overland back to even at 4-4. Davenport and Overland will welcome Boulder at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Angel Chavez Delivers Best Performance of Season
On Thursday, Overland got the W thanks in part to Angel Chavez playing the best football he has all season. Chavez threw for 265 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 13.3 yards per attempt. He is becoming a predictor of Overland's success: when he posts at least three passing touchdowns the team is 2-1 (and 2-3 when he doesn't).
For the season, Chavez has thrown 7 touchdowns while averaging 119.3 passing yards per game.
