6A Region IV District 29 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!
East Central Gets a Boost from Mackey in 50-0 Victory
Starting off the list is East Central's Isaiah Mackey, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Mackey threw for 141 yards and four touchdowns while completing 71.4% of his passes.
San Marcos had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Mackey it was a similar story. Back in November of 2023 (the last time Mackey saw the Rattlers), he rushed for 95 yards and a touchdown on only 13 carries, and also threw for 241 yards and a touchdown.

Steele pushed their record up to 6-1 with the win, which was their eighth straight on the road dating back to last season. WARNER and Steele will get to enjoy the win for a while: their next game is against San Marcos at 7:30 p.m. on October 25th.
