3A-2 Region IV District 16 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!
Martin Castillo Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Starting off the list is Odem's Martin Castillo, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Castillo rushed for 158 yards and two touchdowns on only seven carries. He's now once again averaging 100+ rushing yards (102) per game. He showed off some serious burst, cutting through the defense on one rush that went for 59 yards.
Odem pushed their record up to 7-1 with the win, which was their seventh straight on the road dating back to last season. Castillo and Odem will have some time to savor their victory since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Banquete at 7:30 p.m. on November 1st.
