2A-1 Region I District 3 Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played on Thursday and Friday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Aaron Segura Delivers Best Effort of Season
Aaron Segura produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Sonora to the win on Friday. Segura's passing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 322 passing yards dating back to last season. He also passed for six passing touchdowns, which is notable because Sonora is undefeated when he posts at least three passing touchdowns, but 1-2 otherwise.
The victory (which was Sonora's fourth in a row) raised their record to 4-2. Segura and Sonora are taking a road trip to square off against Ozona at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

A Season-Best Performance from Manuel Riojas Leads Christoval over Colorado
Christoval was led to victory by Manuel Riojas, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Riojas rushed for 161 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 10.1 yards per carry. He didn't just play on offense: he also forced a fumble and made four total tackles.
This season, Riojas has run in 3 touchdowns while averaging 55.5 rushing yards per game.
Gamescore: 47.80
Big Game from Mcglothlin As Christoval Won 42-14
Another Christoval player making an appearance on this list is Stanton McGlothlin. He rushed for 94 yards and two touchdowns on only 11 carries, and also threw for 131 yards and two touchdowns on only 11 passes.
McGlothlin and Christoval will venture away from home to face off against Reagan County at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Cougars got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Owls, probably because McGlothlin had a solid game then too: he rushed for 97 yards on only nine carries, and also threw for 23 yards and a touchdown. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

Brown Made His Presence Known in Reagan County's 44-28 Win
Jarrett Brown was a major factor in Reagan County's win over Ozona on Thursday. Brown was dynamite, rushing for 80 yards and two touchdowns, while also throwing for 117 yards and a touchdown while completing 71.4% of his passes.
Reagan County pushed their record up to 5-1 with the victory, which was their fourth straight at home dating back to last season. Brown will have a chance to log another big game when he takes on Christoval on Friday.

This year, Daniels has averaged 8.3 total tackles per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 2.67 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 24.83 rushing yards.
