3A Pikes Peak 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!
Caeden Herrera Turns in Season-Best Effort
Pueblo South was led to victory by Caeden Herrera, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Herrera threw for 230 yards and four touchdowns, and also rushed for 54 yards and a touchdown on only six carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
Herrera is probably looking forward to his next game, a road matchup against Pueblo Centennial on Thursday. When Herrera last faced the Bulldogs back in October of 2023, he threw for 76 yards and four touchdowns while completing 75% of his passes, and also rushed for 30 yards.

Moore Came Up Big in Lewis-Palmer's 58-27 Victory
Lewis-Palmer's three-game losing streak is now nothing but a memory thanks in part to Gregory Moore. Moore was unstoppable on Friday, rushing for 147 yards and two touchdowns on only 11 carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 50 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
This season, Moore has run in those 2 touchdowns while averaging 74.8 rushing yards per game.
