6A Region I District 2 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!
Gavin Black Delivers Best Effort of Season
On Friday, Permian got the W thanks in part to Gavin Black playing the best football he has all season. Black's rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his sixth straight game with at least 177 rushing yards dating back to last season. He was no stranger to the big play, taking off on a dash that went for 63 yards.
The victory for Permian keeps them at an undefeated 6-0. A feisty cat fight will be fought when Panthers challenges San Angelo Central at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 65.40
Chase Campbell's Rushing Yards a New Career-High
Chase Campbell produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Frenship to the win on Friday. Campbell picked up 68 receiving yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 104 yards and a touchdown on only ten carries, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. His longest reception was for an impressive 58 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per catch total.
The win was the fifth in a row for Frenship, bringing their record for this year to 5-1. Campbell will have a chance to log another big game when he takes on Midland Legacy on Friday.
Gamescore: 56.02
Another Game with at Least 122 Rushing Yards from Elijah Mccoy
Elijah McCoy's rushing tear continued on Friday as he dropped his sixth-straight game with 122+ rushing yards. He rushed for 215 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 9.3 yards per carry.
Midland moved to 4-2 with that defeat, which also ended their four-game winning streak. McCoy and Midland will head out on the road to challenge Odessa at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Stroman Bridges Goes Supernova in Midland Loss
Keeping McCoy company is Stroman Bridges, a fellow Midland player. He rushed for 116 yards and three touchdowns on only ten carries, and also threw for 31 yards and a touchdown.
Unfortunately for Frenship, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Bridges. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Bridges saw the Tigers), he rushed for 209 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries.
