2A-1 Region I District 3 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!
Aaron Segura Turns in Season-Best Effort
Sonora was led to victory by Aaron Segura, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Segura's passing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his third straight game with at least 322 passing yards dating back to last season. He also passed for six passing touchdowns, which is notable because Sonora is undefeated when he posts at least three passing touchdowns, but 1-2 otherwise.
The victory was the fourth in a row for Sonora, bringing their record for this year to 4-2. Segura and Sonora are taking a road trip to take on Ozona at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
