Izac Cazares Tops All Others This Week
Starting off the list is Artesia's Izac Cazares, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Cazares rushed for 26 yards and a touchdown, and also threw for 89 yards and a touchdown.
Cazares might have his next game, a road matchup with Mayfield, circled on his calendar. Cazares rushed for 197 yards and four touchdowns on only 14 carries, and also threw for 156 yards and two touchdowns the last time he and the Trojans duked it out two weeks ago.
