4A District 10 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!
Antonio Muniz Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Starting off the list is Gulf's Antonio Muniz, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Muniz rushed for 159 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 8.4 yards per carry. The performance once again pushed his average rushing yardage north of 100 yards per game (105.5). He was no stranger to the big play, turning on the jets for a run that went for 62 yards.
Muniz is probably looking forward to his next game, a home matchup against Fivay on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Muniz saw the Falcons), he rushed for 202 yards and five touchdowns while picking up 7.5 yards per carry, and also picked up 86 receiving yards.

Jaydn Wood Has Career Rushing Day
Jaydn Wood posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Friday. He rushed for 109 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries. He got the majority of those rushing yards when he took off on a run that went for an incredible 70 yards.
Wood and Gulf will have some time to savor their victory since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Fivay at 7:30 p.m. on October 18th. The Buccaneers got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Falcons, probably because Wood had a solid game then too: he threw for 114 yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 50 yards. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

Clearwater Wins Third-Straight Thanks to Noel Brown
Noel Brown's big game helped extend Clearwater's winning streak to three on Friday. Brown wasn't messing around, picking up a sack and making seven total tackles (2.0 for loss). The matchup was his third straight with seven or more total tackles dating back to last season.
Clearwater now has a winning record of 4-3. Brown and Clearwater will get to enjoy the win for a while: their next game is against East Lake at 7:30 p.m. on October 18th.
