2A-2 Region II District 6 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!
Brayden Loyd's Big Game Can't Quite Lead Seymour over Electra
Starting off the list is Seymour's Brayden Loyd, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Loyd threw for 229 yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 125 yards and a touchdown on only 15 carries. Those 125 rushing yards gave him a new career-high.
Unfortunately for Electra, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Loyd. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Loyd saw the Tigers), he threw for 438 yards and seven touchdowns while completing 76.3% of his passes.

Munday's Losing Streak Is No More Thanks to Jariyis Williams
Munday's three-game losing streak is now nothing but a memory thanks in part to Jariyis Williams. Williams turned in nothing short of a gem on Friday, rushing for 81 yards and a touchdown on only ten carries, while also catching a touchdown.
Munday now has a winning record of 4-3. Williams will have a chance to log another big game when he takes on Electra on Friday.

Smith Made His Presence Known in Archer City's 28-8 Loss
Landon Smith continued his hot streak on Friday by dropping his sixth-straight game (dating back to last season) with at least 118 rushing yards. He rushed for 171 yards and a touchdown while picking up 8.6 yards per carry.
If history really does repeat itself, Smith might just drop another big game when he faces off against Haskell on Friday. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Smith saw the Indians), he threw for 213 yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 60 yards and a touchdown on only six carries.
Gamescore: 36.70
Noah Cornell Makes It Two for Archer City
Keeping Smith company is Noah Cornell, a fellow Archer City player. He made nine total tackles.
Cornell and Archer City will face off against Haskell at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The last time Cornell took on the Indians, he made nine total tackles (3.0 for loss). Can he match (or beat) that performance?
Gamescore: 28.03
Beaux Shaginaw Turns in Another Game with at Least 12 Total Tackles
Beaux Shaginaw continued his hot streak on Friday by dropping his seventh-straight game with at least 12 total tackles. He picked up two sacks and made 16 total tackles. He is becoming a predictor of Haskell's success: when he posts at least one sack the team is 2-1 (and 1-3 when he doesn't).
Haskell now has a losing record at 3-4. Shaginaw will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant performance when he faces off against Archer City on Friday.
