6A District 1 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!
Juan Munoz and Co. Win Tenth in a Row
Cleveland picked up their tenth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Juan Munoz. Munoz was unstoppable, picking up 114 receiving yards and a touchdown, while also rushing for 65 yards and a touchdown. The bulk of those receiving yards came from one huge play: a catch that gained an incredible 94 yards.
Cleveland pushed their record up to 10-1 with the win, which was their fifth straight at home. Munoz will have a chance to log another big game when he takes on Centennial on Friday.

Jordan Hatch's Big Game Leads Cleveland over Los Lunas
Jordan Hatch's big game helped extend Cleveland's winning streak to ten on Friday. Los Lunas had no answer to Hatch as he threw for 247 yards and three touchdowns on only 19 passes.
Hatch and Cleveland will take on Centennial at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Storm had to take a loss when they last met the Hawks, but Hatch had little to do with the loss: he threw for 163 yards and two touchdowns. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
