3A-2 Region I District 4 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 Effort from Jaidyn Vineyard Leads Coahoma over Littlefield
Coahoma was led to victory by Jaidyn Vineyard, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Vineyard rushed for 373 yards and six touchdowns while picking up 9.6 yards per carry, and also picked up 76 receiving yards and a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He was no stranger to the big play, cutting upfield on a catch that went for 67 yards.
Vineyard must have Littlefield's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Vineyard rushed for 201 yards and two touchdowns the last time he and the Wildcats duked it out back in October of 2023.

Boyd Cox's Big Game Leads Coahoma over Littlefield
Keeping Vineyard company is Boyd Cox, a fellow Coahoma player. He threw for 302 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 12.1 yards per attempt. He is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in the last three games he's played dating back to last season.
On the year, Cox has thrown 15 touchdowns (and and only 3 picks) while averaging 267.8 passing yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after five games last season, he was only averaging 51.02 passer rating per game. This year he is averaging 128.42 passer rating.
