2A-1 Region I District 3 Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances in games played on Thursday and Friday (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Aaron Segura Turns in Season-Best Effort
On Friday, Sonora got the W thanks in part to Aaron Segura playing the best football he has all season. Segura's passing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 322 passing yards dating back to last season. He also passed for six passing touchdowns, which is notable because Sonora is undefeated when he posts at least three passing touchdowns, but 1-2 otherwise.
The win was the fourth in a row for Sonora, bringing their record for this year to 4-2. Segura and Sonora will head out on the road to square off against Ozona at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
