5A-2 Region IV District 15 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!
Sharyland Gets a Boost from Harris in 70-33 Loss
Starting off the list is Sharyland's Calvin Harris, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Harris threw for 372 yards and four touchdowns while completing 76.9% of his passes, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground. His passing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 315 passing yards dating back to last season.
This season, Harris has thrown 19 touchdowns while averaging 292.3 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 15.67 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 74.33 rushing yards.

A Season-Best Performance from Cameron Sarinana Leads Mission Veterans Memorial over Hanna
Mission Veterans Memorial was led to victory by Cameron Sarinana, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Sarinana threw for 242 yards and four touchdowns.
The victory snapped Mission Veterans Memorial's winning streak at six games dating back to last season and leaves them with a 1-5 record. Sarinana and Mission Veterans Memorial will face off against Sharyland at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday.
Gamescore: 36.23
While Luis Pena delivered a dominant performance on Friday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Roma. Despite the defeat, Pena was still balling out as he made 17 total tackles.
Roma's loss ended a seven-game streak of wins at home dating back to last season and dropped them to 4-2. Pena and Roma will have a little extra prep time after the defeat as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on Pioneer at 7:00 p.m. on October 18th.

Benjamin Martinez Puts an End to Mission Veterans Memorial's Losing Streak on Friday
Mission Veterans Memorial's six-game losing streak dating back to last season is now nothing but a memory thanks in part to Benjamin Martinez. Martinez turned in nothing short of a gem on Friday, picking up 89 receiving yards and two touchdowns, while also rushing for 41 yards.
This year, Martinez has caught those 2 touchdowns while averaging 46.3 receiving yards per game.

Aiden Uribe Turns in Another Game with at Least Six Total Tackles
Aiden Uribe continued his hot streak on Friday by dropping his 18th-straight game (dating back to last season) with at least six total tackles. He forced a fumble and made 16 total tackles (3.0 for loss).
Uribe must have Hanna's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Uribe forced a fumble and made 17 total tackles (3.0 for loss) the last time he and the Golden Eagles duked it out back in September of 2023.
