3A District 2 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!
Hope Christian Gets a Boost from Willams in 35-6 Victory
Starting off the list is Hope Christian's Breylon Willams, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Willams picked up 212 receiving yards and three touchdowns. He torched the secondary when he pulled down a catch that went for 79 yards.
Willams' next contest is against Robertson on Saturday, where he'll look to repeat that solid effort. The game will pit Willams up against the Cardinals' star wideout George Smith. 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.

Roman Montoya Makes It Two for Hope Christian
Another Hope Christian player making an appearance on this list is Roman Montoya. He threw for 230 yards and four touchdowns on only 17 passes, and also rushed for 55 yards and a touchdown.
Montoya and Hope Christian will take on Robertson at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday. The contest will pit Montoya up against the Cardinals' star QB Jesse James Gonzalez. 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.

Jesse James Gonzalez Goes Supernova in Robertson Win
Robertson picked up their eighth consecutive win on Friday thanks in part to Jesse James Gonzalez. Nobody could stop Gonzalez as he threw for 225 yards and two touchdowns while completing 77.8% of his passes, and also rushed for 64 yards and a touchdown.
West Las Vegas had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Gonzalez it was a similar story. Back in October of 2023 (the last time Gonzalez saw the Dons), he rushed for 132 yards and a touchdown while picking up 7.8 yards per carry, and also threw for 150 yards and two touchdowns on only ten passes.

Cj Perea's Rushing Yards a New Career-High
Cj Perea posted a new career-high in rushing yards on Friday. He rushed for 113 yards and a touchdown on only 11 carries, and also threw for 128 yards and a touchdown.
This season, Perea has thrown 11 touchdowns while averaging 173.9 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 12.43 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 35.43 rushing yards.

Robertson Wins Eighth-Straight Thanks to George Smith

For the year, Smith has caught 7 touchdowns while averaging 78 receiving yards per game.
