5A Central Valley 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!
Grant Guidry Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Starting off the list is Westview's Grant Guidry, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Guidry threw for 404 yards and six touchdowns while completing 72.7% of his passes. He's now once again averaging 300+ passing yards (326.3) per game. Guidry is crushing it when it comes to passing touchdowns: he's passed for at least four every time he's taken the field this season.
Westview has been performing well recently as they've won five of their last six matches, which provided a massive bump to their 5-3 record this season. Their homestand will continue as they prepare to take on Kellis at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Addarius Miles Delivers Best Effort of Season
Westview was led to victory by Addarius Miles, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Miles picked up 214 receiving yards and five touchdowns. He's now once again averaging 100+ receiving yards (111.5) per game. His receiving production has been exceptional recently as that marked his fourth straight game with at least 111 receiving yards.
Miles must have Cibola's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. When Miles last faced the Raiders back in October of 2023, he rushed for 82 yards and a touchdown on only five carries, and also caught a touchdown.

Ronald Coty Iii Delivers Electric Effort Vs Paradise Valley
Ronald Coty Iii put up the most rushing yards he's had since back in October of 2023 on Friday. He rushed for 145 yards and a touchdown on only 15 carries, and also threw for 163 yards and a touchdown.
Unfortunately for Paradise Valley, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Coty Iii. When Coty Iii last faced the Trojans back in October of 2023, he rushed for 83 yards and three touchdowns, and also threw for 35 yards and a touchdown.

TJ Allen's Big Game Can't Quite Lead Paradise Valley over Kellis
Paradise Valley had to settle for second on Friday, but TJ Allen sure wasn't going down easily. Allen was dynamite, rushing for 87 yards and two touchdowns on only 12 carries. He didn't just play on offense: he also made three total tackles and defended a pass.
Allen and Paradise Valley will challenge West Point at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The matchup will pit Allen up against the Dragons' star RB Isaiah Smith. 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.

Lilton Deville Turns in Season-Best Performance

West Point's victory ended an eight-game drought at home dating back to last season and bumped them up to 1-7. Deville and West Point will face off against Paradise Valley at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
