5A South Metro 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!

Austyn Modrzewski Delivers Electric Performance Vs Thunderridge

Mountain Vista picked up their seventh consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Austyn Modrzewski. ThunderRidge had no answer to Modrzewski as he threw for 367 yards and six touchdowns while completing 80% of his passes. Modrzewski is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in the last nine games he's played dating back to last season.

Unfortunately for ThunderRidge, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Modrzewski. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Modrzewski saw the Grizzlies), he threw for 451 yards and five touchdowns while completing 81.8% of his passes.
