4A Skyline 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!
Carlos Toscano Delivers Best Performance of Season
Sadly, Carlos Toscano posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Greenway over Peoria on Friday. Toscano rushed for 274 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 8.8 yards per carry, and also caught a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He showed off some serious burst, cutting through the defense on one rush that went for 60 yards.
Toscano might have his next game, a road matchup with Moon Valley, circled on his calendar. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Toscano saw the Rockets), he rushed for 146 yards and a touchdown.
