4A District 2 Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances across Friday and Saturday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Hershul Olloway Jr Delivers Electric Effort Vs Valencia
Starting off the list is St. Pius X's Hershul Olloway Jr, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Olloway Jr rushed for 254 yards and two touchdowns on only 11 carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 65 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
The win (which was St. Pius X's fifth in a row) raised their record to 7-2. Olloway Jr and St. Pius X will face off against Manzano at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday.

Isaiah Carpenter Delivers Best Performance of Season
Isaiah Carpenter produced his most outstanding game to date while leading St. Pius X to the win on Friday. Carpenter wasn't messing around, throwing for 243 yards and six touchdowns while completing 77.8% of his passes. The matchup was his third straight with four or more passing touchdowns.
Carpenter and St. Pius X will square off against Manzano at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. Carpenter will face off against James Vautier, the Monarchs' star QB. So who wins this QB-duel? There's only one way to know for sure.
Gamescore: 45.00
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Saturday Slade Segovia stepped things up a notch to give Portales the 'W'. Segovia was dynamite, rushing for 123 yards and a touchdown. He didn't just play on offense: he also picked up a sack and made seven total tackles in addition to snagging an interception.
Portales now has a winning record of 5-4. Segovia and Portales will take on Chaparral at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Gamescore: 40.95
Tommy Lopez Makes It Two for Portales
Keeping Segovia company is Tommy Lopez, a fellow Portales player. He made two total tackles. He also punched in three rushing touchdowns, which is notable because Portales is undefeated when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns, but 2-4 otherwise.
Gamescore: 28.13
A Season-Best Performance from Bryan Thomas Leads St. Pius X over Valencia
Bryan Thomas produced his most outstanding game to date while leading St. Pius X to the win on Friday. Thomas picked up 89 receiving yards and three touchdowns. He was no stranger to the big play, lighting up the secondary with a catch that went for 50 yards.
Thomas and St. Pius X will square off against Manzano at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. Thomas will face off against Aiden Erickson, the Monarchs' star wideout. The only thing left to do is find out who's the greater deep ball threat. You'll have to watch the game to know for sure.
