5A South Metro 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!
Austyn Modrzewski's Big Game Leads Mountain Vista over Thunderridge
Austyn Modrzewski was instrumental in extending Mountain Vista's winning streak to seven on Friday. Modrzewski was dynamite, throwing for 367 yards and six touchdowns while completing 80% of his passes. He is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in the last nine games he's played dating back to last season.
ThunderRidge's probably not too fond of Modrzewski given he always seems to get the better of them. When Modrzewski last faced the Grizzlies back in September of 2023, he threw for 451 yards and five touchdowns while completing 81.8% of his passes.

Tyler Meyer Delivers Best Effort of Season
Tyler Meyer produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Rock Canyon to the win on Saturday. Meyer's rushing production has been exceptional recently as that marked his seventh straight game with at least 106 rushing yards.
Meyer and Rock Canyon will head out on the road to face off against Castle View at 6:30 p.m. on Friday. The match will pit Meyer up against the Sabercats' star running back Aaron Perry. With so much talent on the field, fans are surely in for an exciting game. The only thing left to see is who brings home the W.
