2A-2 Region II District 6 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!
Brayden Loyd Goes Supernova in Seymour Victory
Starting off the list is Seymour's Brayden Loyd, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Loyd threw for 201 yards and three touchdowns while completing 81.3% of his passes, and also rushed for 112 yards. The dominant performance gave him a new career-high in rushing yards.
If the past is any indication, Loyd could be in store for another big game when he takes on Electra on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Loyd saw the Tigers), he threw for 438 yards and seven touchdowns while completing 76.3% of his passes.

Brock Belcher and Co. Win Third in a Row
Brock Belcher was instrumental in extending Windthorst's winning streak to three on Friday. Belcher turned in nothing short of a gem, throwing for 293 yards and five touchdowns. He is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for four or more in the last three games he's played dating back to last season.
Belcher must have Munday's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Belcher saw the Moguls), he threw for 241 yards and five touchdowns while completing 76% of his passes, and also rushed for 92 yards and a touchdown.

A Season-Best Effort from Braylon Nava Leads Electra over Petrolia
On Friday, Electra got the W thanks in part to Braylon Nava playing the best football he has all season. Nava wasn't messing around, rushing for 54 yards and two touchdowns on only seven carries. The match was his third straight with two or more rushing touchdowns dating back to last season. He also put in work on the defensive side of the ball, forcing a fumble, making ten total tackles, and defending a pass in addition to snagging an interception which he returned for a touchdown.
The victory for Electra keeps them at an undefeated 5-0. A feisty cat fight will be fought when Tigers challenges Seymour on Friday.

Haskell's loss ended a five-game streak of wins at home dating back to last season and dropped them to 3-3. Pinkerton and Haskell will head out to face off against Munday on Friday.
