2A-1 Region IV 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!
Ayden Gardner's Big Game Can't Quite Lead Bloomington over Kenedy
Starting off the list is Bloomington's Ayden Gardner, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Gardner rushed for 119 yards and two touchdowns on only 11 carries. He has become a key player for Bloomington: the team is 2-1 when he posts at least 100 rushing yards, but 1-3 otherwise.
Bloomington now has a losing record at 3-4. Gardner and Bloomington will challenge Weimar at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 44.15
Logan Bures and Co. Win Fourth in a Row
Logan Bures's big game helped extend Ganado's winning streak to four on Friday. Bures did his part (and then some), making five total tackles for the 'W'.
This season, Bures has averaged 1.8 total tackles per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 32.75 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 91 rushing yards.
Gamescore: 40.55
Gardner Posts Huge Game in 39-28 Defeat
Another Bloomington player making an appearance on this list is Amari Gardner. He rushed for 82 yards and a touchdown, and also caught a touchdown.
Unfortunately for Kenedy, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Gardner. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Gardner saw the Lions), he rushed for 63 yards and two touchdowns.
Gamescore: 37.48
Bryce Ullman Makes It Two for Ganado
The second Ganado player making an appearance here is Bryce Ullman, and for good reason. He made four total tackles.
Gamescore: 33.05
Another Ganado player making an appearance on this list is Landon Hicks. He made 15 total tackles and defended a pass. The bulk of those receiving yards came from one huge play: a catch that gained an incredible 75 yards.
On the year, Hicks has averaged 7.3 total tackles per game.
Gamescore: 32.77
