6A Region II District 15 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 Came Up Big in Tomball Memorial's 48-41 Loss
Starting off the list is Tomball Memorial's Aiden Martin, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Martin threw for 251 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 11.4 yards per attempt, and also rushed for 50 yards and two touchdowns. He is becoming a predictor of Tomball Memorial's success: when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns the team is 2-1 (and 0-3 when he doesn't).
A feisty cat fight will be fought when Wildcats takes on Tomball at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The last time Martin took on the Cougars, he rushed for 100 yards and a touchdown on only 11 carries, and also threw for 109 yards on nine of 19 attempts. Can he match (or beat) that performance?

A Season-Best Performance from Bryson Broadway Leads Magnolia West over Klein
On Friday, Magnolia West had to settle for second even though Bryson Broadway put up the best numbers he has all season. Broadway threw for 208 yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 48 yards and a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process.
Magnolia West is on a four-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-5. Broadway and Magnolia West will head out to challenge Klein Oak at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday.

On Friday, Tomball Memorial had to settle for second even though Donovan Wagner put up the best numbers he has all season. Wagner wasn't messing around, making 14 total tackles and defending a pass. The matchup was his sixth straight with five or more total tackles.

Deandre Milliner Turns in Season-Best Effort
Sadly, Deandre Milliner posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead Magnolia West over Klein on Friday. Milliner picked up 118 receiving yards and a touchdown. The bulk of those receiving yards came from one huge play: a catch that gained an incredible 65 yards.
This year, Milliner has caught those 1 touchdown while averaging 38.3 receiving yards per game. He's made a big improvement compared to last season: at this point last year, he was only averaging 14.67 receiving yards per game.
