3A-2 Region I District 4 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!
Jaidyn Vineyard Turns in Season-Best Effort
On Friday, Coahoma got the W thanks in part to Jaidyn Vineyard playing the best football he has all season. Vineyard rushed for 373 yards and six touchdowns while picking up 9.6 yards per carry, and also picked up 76 receiving yards and a touchdown, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He was no stranger to the big play, cutting upfield on a catch that went for 67 yards.
Vineyard must have Littlefield's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Vineyard rushed for 201 yards and two touchdowns the last time he and the Wildcats duked it out back in October of 2023.

Boyd Cox Dazzles in Coahoma Victory
Keeping Vineyard company is Boyd Cox, a fellow Coahoma player. He threw for 302 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 12.1 yards per attempt. He is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in the last three games he's played dating back to last season.
For the year, Cox has thrown 15 touchdowns (and and only 3 picks) while averaging 267.8 passing yards per game. He is looking even better than he did last year: after five games last season, he was only averaging 137.6 passing yards per game.

Wall Wins Fourth-Straight Thanks to Ethan Michalewicz
Wall picked up their fourth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Ethan Michalewicz. Michalewicz was unstoppable, rushing for 66 yards and a touchdown. The bulk of those rushing yards came from one huge play: a run that gained an incredible 60 yards.
Wall pushed their record up to 5-1 with the victory, which was their third straight at home. Michalewicz's next match is against Merkel on Friday, where he'll look to repeat that solid effort.
