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 Loss
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 229 yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 125 yards and a touchdown on only 15 carries. The dominant performance gave him a new career-high in rushing yards.
Electra had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Loyd it was a similar story. Loyd threw for 438 yards and seven touchdowns while completing 76.3% of his passes the last time he and the Tigers duked it out back in October of 2023.

Munday's Losing Streak Is No More Thanks to Jariyis Williams
Thanks in part to Jariyis Williams, Munday said goodbye to their three-game losing streak. Williams was dynamite on Friday, rushing for 81 yards and a touchdown on only ten carries, while also catching a touchdown.
Munday now has a winning record of 4-3. Williams will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant performance when he faces off against Electra on Friday.

Smith Came Up Big in Archer City's 28-8 Defeat
Landon Smith continued his hot streak on Friday by dropping his sixth-straight game (dating back to last season) with at least 118 rushing yards. He rushed for 171 yards and a touchdown while picking up 8.6 yards per carry.
Smith is probably looking forward to his next game, a road matchup against Haskell on Friday. When Smith last faced the Indians back in October of 2023, he threw for 213 yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 60 yards and a touchdown on only six carries.

Noah Cornell Makes It Two for Archer City
Keeping Smith company is Noah Cornell, a fellow Archer City player. He made nine total tackles.
Cornell and Archer City will challenge Haskell at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Wildcats had to take a loss when they last met the Indians, but Cornell had little to do with the loss: he made nine total tackles (3.0 for loss). Can he match (or beat) that performance?
Gamescore: 28.03
Beaux Shaginaw Turns in Another Game with at Least 12 Total Tackles
Beaux Shaginaw continued his hot streak on Friday by dropping his seventh-straight game with at least 12 total tackles. He picked up two sacks and made 16 total tackles. Haskell is 2-1 when Shaginaw posts one or more sacks, but 1-3 otherwise.
Haskell now has a losing record at 3-4. Shaginaw's next game is against Archer City on Friday, where he'll look to repeat that solid effort.
