3A-2 Region IV District 16 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!
Martin Castillo Crosses Big Stat Threshold
Starting off the list is Odem's Martin Castillo, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Castillo rushed for 158 yards and two touchdowns on only seven carries. He's now once again averaging 100+ rushing yards (102) per game. He showed off some serious burst, turning on the afterburners on one carry for 59 yards.
Odem's victory was their seventh straight on the road dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 7-1. Castillo and Odem will have some time to savor their win since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Banquete at 7:30 p.m. on November 1st.
Gamescore: 40.80
Teagan Collins Delivers Best Performance of Season
George West was led to victory by Teagan Collins, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Collins threw for 215 yards and four touchdowns while completing 81.3% of his passes, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground.
The win (which was George West's fifth in a row) raised their record to 5-2. Collins will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant performance when he faces off against Santa Rosa on Friday.

Hinojosa Made His Presence Known in Odem's 61-7 Win

This year, Hinojosa has run in 21 touchdowns while averaging 128.5 rushing yards per game.
