4A East Sky 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!
Aiden Deleon Goes Supernova in Apache Junction Defeat
Starting off the list is Apache Junction's Aiden Deleon, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Deleon rushed for 160 yards on only ten carries, and also threw for 180 yards and a touchdown on only 15 passes. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 96-yard run.
Deleon must have Marcos de Niza's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. When Deleon last faced the Padres back in September of 2023, he rushed for 106 yards and three touchdowns, and also threw for 213 yards and a touchdown.
