5A-2 Region IV District 14 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!
Reed Dooms Turns in Season-Best Performance
On Thursday, Gregory-Portland got the W thanks in part to Reed Dooms playing the best football he has all season. Dooms threw for 389 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 12.2 yards per attempt, and also rushed for 54 yards and a touchdown.
Carroll's probably not too fond of Dooms given he always seems to get the better of them. Dooms threw for 322 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 12.4 yards per attempt, and also punched in a rushing score the last time he and the Tigers duked it out back in August of 2023.

Brandon Coates Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Brandon Coates produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Gregory-Portland to the win on Thursday. Coates picked up 213 receiving yards and two touchdowns. The performance once again pushed his average receiving yardage north of 100 yards per game (104.5). He was no stranger to the big play, cutting upfield on a catch that went for 62 yards.
Coates and Gregory-Portland will stay at home for another week and welcome Miller at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The match will pit Coates up against the Buccaneers' star receiver Eathan Vela. With so much talent on the field, fans are surely in for an exciting game. The only thing left to see is who brings home the W.
