Kadyn Mitchell Goes Supernova in Houston Academy Win
Starting off the list is Houston Academy's Kadyn Mitchell, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Mitchell threw for 300 yards and five touchdowns while completing 92.9% of his passes. He is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in the last four games he's played dating back to last season.
Mitchell might have his next game, a home matchup with Northside Methodist Academy, circled on his calendar. Mitchell threw for 298 yards and four touchdowns while completing 80% of his passes the last time he and the Knights duked it out back in October of 2023.
Gamescore: 43.60
Reid Mcbride and Co. Win Fourth in a Row
Reid Mcbride was instrumental in extending Montgomery Academy's winning streak to four on Friday. Nobody could stop Mcbride as he threw for 229 yards and three touchdowns while completing 78.6% of his passes. He is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in the last five games he's played.
For the season, Mcbride has thrown 22 touchdowns (and and only 3 picks) while averaging 216.5 passing yards per game.
Gamescore: 32.27
Vinson Posts Huge Game in 50-12 Win
Keeping Mcbride company is D.J. Vinson, a fellow Montgomery Academy player. He picked up 75 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
Slocomb's probably not too fond of Vinson given he always seems to get the better of them. When Vinson last faced the Red Tops back in October of 2023, he picked up 234 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Gamescore: 29.42
Gabe Glover Makes It Two for Houston Academy
The second Houston Academy player making an appearance here is Gabe Glover, and for good reason. He picked up 86 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He was no stranger to the big play, connecting on a big catch that went for 54 yards.
