6A Region II District 15 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!
A Season-Best Performance from Aiden Martin Leads Tomball Memorial over Magnolia West
On Friday, Tomball Memorial got the W thanks in part to Aiden Martin playing the best football he has all season. Martin wasn't messing around, throwing for 451 yards and six touchdowns while completing 73.1% of his passes, and also rushing for 56 yards and two touchdowns on only seven carries. The match was his third straight with three or more passing touchdowns.
Martin and Tomball Memorial will look to defend their home field on Friday against Klein at 7:00 p.m. The Wildcats got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Bearkats, probably because Martin had a solid game then too: he threw for 259 yards and three touchdowns on only 19 passes. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

Zach Johnson Turns in Season-Best Performance
On Friday, Klein Cain got the W thanks in part to Zach Johnson playing the best football he has all season. Johnson threw for 405 yards and five touchdowns while completing 73.3% of his passes, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground.
The victory was the fourth in a row for Klein Cain, bringing their record for this year to 7-1. Johnson will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant effort when he faces off against Tomball on Saturday.
