A-6 Southwest (6 Man) Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances across Friday and Saturday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Kolter Cranson Dazzles in Branson/Kim Loss
Starting off the list is Branson/Kim's Kolter Cranson, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Cranson rushed for 268 yards and five touchdowns while picking up 7.1 yards per carry. That's the most rushing yards he has posted since back in October of 2023.
Unfortunately for Sierra Grande, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Cranson. When Cranson last faced the Panthers back in September of 2023, he rushed for 223 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 11.7 yards per carry, and also picked up 57 receiving yards and a touchdown.

Sierra Grande Wins Sixth-Straight Thanks to Jadyn Martinez
Jadyn Martinez's big game helped extend Sierra Grande's winning streak to six on Friday. Martinez was unstoppable, picking up 111 receiving yards and four touchdowns. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making 17 total tackles (1.0 for loss) and defending a pass in addition to snagging an interception.
Sierra Grande pushed their record up to 6-0 with the win, which was their third straight at home. Martinez and Sierra Grande have the luxury of staying home for another week and will welcome Cotopaxi at 6:00 p.m. on Saturday.
