2A-1 Region I District 3 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!
Aaron Segura Delivers Best Effort of Season
Aaron Segura produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Sonora to the win on Friday. Segura's passing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 322 passing yards dating back to last season. He also passed for six passing touchdowns, which is notable because Sonora is undefeated when he posts at least three passing touchdowns, but 1-2 otherwise.
The victory (which was Sonora's fourth in a row) raised their record to 4-2. Segura and Sonora will head out on the road to challenge Ozona at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

A Season-Best Performance from Manuel Riojas Leads Christoval over Colorado
Christoval was led to victory by Manuel Riojas, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Riojas rushed for 161 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 10.1 yards per carry. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, forcing a fumble and making four total tackles.
On the season, Riojas has run in 3 touchdowns while averaging 55.5 rushing yards per game.

McGlothlin and Christoval will head out on the road to face off against Reagan County at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The last time McGlothlin took on the Owls, he rushed for 97 yards on only nine carries, and also threw for 23 yards and a touchdown. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

For the year, Daniels has averaged 8.3 total tackles per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 2.67 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 24.83 rushing yards.
