6A Region IV District 28 Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played from last Thursday through Saturday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Moon Posts Huge Game in 48-28 Victory
Starting off the list is Sotomayor's Chauncey Moon, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Moon rushed for 117 yards and two touchdowns on only nine carries, and also threw for 85 yards and a touchdown. The dominant performance gave him a new career-high in rushing yards.
The victory (which was Sotomayor's fourth in a row) raised their record to 5-2. Moon will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant effort when he faces off against Taft on Thursday.

Aldric Trotter and Co. Win Third in a Row

Harlan's victory was their eighth straight on the road dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 5-1. It'll be Battle of the Birds when Hawks takes on Stevens at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.

Raymond Foster-Davis's big game helped extend Taft's winning streak to four on Friday. Foster-Davis turned in nothing short of a gem, picking up 132 receiving yards and three touchdowns.

Payton Matthews Turns in Season-Best Performance
On Saturday, Harlan got the W thanks in part to Payton Matthews playing the best football he has all season. Matthews picked up 126 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 42 yards.
Holmes had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Matthews it was a similar story. Matthews picked up 115 receiving yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 70 yards and a touchdown the last time he and the Huskies duked it out back in October of 2023.
