6A-I District 2 Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Thursday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Tayveon Parry Turns in Season-Best Performance
Union was led to victory by Tayveon Parry, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Thursday. Parry rushed for 170 yards and three touchdowns on only ten carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest rush was for an impressive 52 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
On the season, Parry has run in 4 touchdowns while averaging 85.6 rushing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after seven games last season, he was only averaging 14.57 rushing yards per game.

A Season-Best Performance from Jordan Schelling Leads Union over Yukon
Union was led to victory by Jordan Schelling, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Thursday. Schelling rushed for 136 yards and two touchdowns on only five carries. The performance marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in October of 2023. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 89-yard run.
Schelling and Union will be playing in front of their home fans against Broken Arrow at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The last time Schelling took on the Tigers, he picked up 58 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 46 yards. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

Jeramiah Ssettimba Delivers Electric Performance Vs Norman North
Jeramiah Ssettimba posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Thursday. He rushed for 99 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 231 yards and a touchdown.
Ssettimba and Broken Arrow will take on Union at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Ssettimba will face off against Shaker Reisig, the Redhawks' star QB. With so much talent on the field, fans are surely in for an exciting game. The only thing left to see is who brings home the W.

Octavian Roberson Makes It Two for Broken Arrow
Another Broken Arrow player making an appearance on this list is Octavian Roberson. He rushed for 130 yards and a touchdown on only 12 carries, and also caught a touchdown. He got the majority of those rushing yards when he took off on a run that went for an incredible 80 yards.
On the year, Roberson has caught 5 touchdowns while averaging 28 receiving yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 20.86 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 107.43 rushing yards.

David Mccomb Makes Top Five
Rounding off our Top Five is David McComb of Edmond Memorial. McComb rushed for 84 yards and a touchdown, and also threw for 145 yards and a touchdown. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 80-yard run.
Unfortunately for Owasso, this isn't the first big game they've seen from McComb. Back in October of 2023 (the last time McComb saw the Rams), he threw for 325 yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 134 yards and a touchdown on only five carries.
